How do USCF rating floors work?

Hm, indeed... On the other hand, some other sources, e.g. http://math.bu.edu/people/mg/ratings/approx/approx.html say that the lowest floor (higher than 100) is 1400.

I tried to search on the USCF website but unfortunately the official regulations seem to be hidden in members only section (no idea why).

I found this linked from my USCF page: https://new.uschess.org/sites/default/files/media/documents/the-us-chess-rating-system-revised-september-2020.pdf It has a section called "Rating floors."
