Can someone give me insight on what "Shrink to seed" does? I have set up a custom symbology but that tool is having issues.

I had the goal of adding a third symbology class to my standard parcel fabric set up. I wanted some sort of visual indicator on parcels that were outside of our error tolerance. For instance, if a parcels deeded (stated) acreage is 10 acres, but the calculated acreage is only 8.5, I wanted that parcel to be highlighted in red since it is outside our target threshold of 10%. Setting up the symbology was fairly easy. I just tweaked the existing symbology expression from this:
to this:
That allowed me to set up the symbology that I was going for:
However, in my editing after, I noticed an unexpected behavior when using the "Shrink to Seed" tool. Rather than shrinking shirnking and applying the default blue symbology for a parcel seed, it shrinks and applies the error symbology.
It seems to be recognized as a seed since it is getting labeled by the seed label class, but it is also getting labeled by the Error label class, and I can't quite figure out why. Are there any hidden facets to the "Shrink to Seed" tool that could be causing this? Have I just missed something in my symbology tweaks? I would greatly appreciate any assistance that anyone could provide!
I was able to resolve the issue, through rephrasing the symbology expression to this:
I am not really sure why that resolved the issue, but it did. When I use the shrink to seed tool now, it applies the correct symbology:
If someone could fill me in on what the difference maker was, I would appreciate it! Just thankful to have it resolved either way, though!
