The Saju view
The opening of Scott falls in the metal group of the sound-element table, because it is a hissing, teeth-edge sound. If your Four Pillars show little metal, Scott is worth a closer look: its metal sound is the kind the tradition recommends for a shortage. Scott supports water from behind: its metal sound is the traditional source of that element. If metal is already strong in a chart, Scott ranks lower there, because it piles on more of the same element.
