If a decision tree, classifying bank loan applicants, splits a node based on 'credit score', which consequence follows for model complexity?

A)Decreased overfitting on training data
B)Reduced information gain from splits
C)Simpler model interpretation globally
D)Increased model specificity locally

💡 Explanation

Node splitting increases model specificity because it creates finer distinctions among data subsets. Information gain guides the splitting process. Therefore, the model becomes more tailored to local data characteristics, rather than generalizing well and avoiding overfitting.
