I was just wondering, is there ever such a thing as “over scoring” ? (I don’t mean the depth, but I mean the number of score cuts or the surface area that gets scored)

Hey Veronica! Yes, it’s absolutely a thing. Scoring should be effective in order for the surface to bloom optimally. Each stroke comes with a trade of oven spring, since tension is released from the surface . If the pattern on top is more important then the spring then it’s no real issue, the content and fermentation of the bread is still the same.
