Why is this a Gas Dwarf?Your planet has an unusual composition that doesn't fit standard classifications, or lacks the elements needed for complex geological processes.
Barren worlds can form from uncommon element combinations or may be remnants of larger bodies that lost their atmospheres and volatile materials.
Classification Criteria:

Contributing Factors
water15
No solid surface — any water is locked in a supercritical mantle and hot ice, not oceans
geology60
Some geological activity provides slow nutrient cycling
rotation10
Near tidally locked - one hemisphere perpetually scorched, other frozen, narrow habitable twilight zone only
Organic Chemistry80
Core organic elements (CHNO) present
atmosphere12
Hydrogen-rich atmosphere typical of gas giants (partially stripped by slow rotation)
temperature70
Challenging but potentially habitable temperature
magnetic Field100
Magnetic field provides radiation protection
