The fitness score/ graph is more like a training load score or effort score. It tracks the strain you're putting on your body, but doesn't account for things like efficiency, speed, or how well you’re adapting to that load. Calling it a "fitness score" is definitely a misnomer, especially when it doesn't accurately reflect your actual fitness improvements.
My score has gone down 20% in the past 45 days even though I'm doing similar milage as at my peak, I've just gotten more efficient. So technically, the decrease in "fitness" is actually an increase.
It’d be much more helpful if it were framed as something more specific, like training strain or load tracking, so users wouldn’t mistake it for a true measure of fitness. But for now, it’s really more about the volume and effort of your training than your actual fitness progress.
