greater than not doing what I expected

[Gudlaugur Johannesson]

If I understand the filter system correctly, which I am not sure of, a song is 
selected if
(Rating > 2.5 || Score > 65 || Playcount == 0) && Artist != "John Williams" && 
Artist != "Metallica" && Rating > 2.5.

With these, you are excluding all songs that have rating less than 2.5.  My 
guess is that you want to do
(Rating > 2.5 || Score > 65 || Playcount == 0) && Artist != "John Williams" && 
Artist != "Metallica" && (Rating > 2.5 || Not Rated)

This is not possible and I guess the developers will have a hard time 
implementing this kind of flexibility in a nice understandable interface.

What you can do instead, is to have two smart playlists and a dynamic playlist 
that selects from those.

The first one would be to select all songs rated above 2.5.
The second one would be 
(Score > 65 || Playcount == 0) && Not Rated

To have consistency with the artists, you would have to exclude them from both 
playlist.

This is not optimal, but should work.

The problem here is that you generally don't want to exclude non-rated songs 
when filtering on rating.  A possible fix is to have a default rating of 5 
rather than the current default of 0.  Or even an option Rating, excluding 
non rated or something like that.  Shouldn't be to hard to code, although I 
am not volunteering for it.
