If I'm not mistaken, it's basically a matter of who the judge finds more 'cool', and there aren't really any actual scoring criteria/deductions/etc.

Similar to some boxing bouts I’ve seen so

Yes, it's based on metaphysics - body and soul or something like that. 

Great, gotta love having Olympics events which can't possibly be quantified in any legitimate way

Probably the same with Skateboarding/Surfing, where even the athletes are against a "code of points". We just have to trust the judges

Just noticed Try Guys collab video with Olympic channels around breaking.

If anyone interested - from 10:54 mark they explain the Olympic rules and judging system:

I have just get an info about the age limit.

 

WDSF probably will define 16+ years old to the dancers who want to qualify. So, we will not have those kids 11, 12 as we had in Skateboarding.

The participation rate was decent, 44 nations in B-Boys and 38 nations in B-Girls. Many Olympic sports would heavily struggle to get those numbers at a World Cup/Series.

You may refer to the Score section of this page. But it's actually votes rather than score.
