I have no idea why the GB4 score results are blank, but according to the URL, the single core and multi-core scores are 4805 and 4525 respectively.

Huge thanks to @sh97 for transferring this VPS to me!
As with the last YABS, the CPU benchmark results are not being displayed by the script. According to the full test URL, the single and multi core numbers are 719 and 714 respectively.

The disk is slower than my SD Card lol
Comparing with other ppl's yabs from the same plan, this one is flying
GreenCloud - 'BudgetKVMSGDC1-2' - Singapore
DeluxHost W-3 plan
It's AMD Ryzen 9 9950X !!!!
CloudBlast - US Salt Lake - 3GB Plan
Since running YABS on a host that already has a lot of activity going on skews the results, and I have a lot of servers that I haven't run YABS on yet, I think I'll create a custom initramfs that just runs YABS, reboot into it using kexec to quickly run the script (after mounting the root filesystem for disk I/O tests) and export it, then reboot again to minimize downtime.
Would a tutorial on creating that be of interest to anyone here?

Yes, but it would be important to also ensure that the disk related (fio) yabs are also run (esp. for storage servers that may have the HDD based "big disks" also).
You're over estimating the "minimise downtime" aspect - we're (cheap) idlers here. We're also yabs-boasters and envy-creaters. So I guess the contention-free yabs should result in more envy in others. Definitely worth it!
Yes, it'd have to mount the root filesystem to do the tests. That's easy enough by just passing the PARTUUID as a boot parameter that's given to kexec (same with networking configuration, so that it doesn't have to attempt to autoconfigure networking on its own) so that it knows what to mount.
If it's "natively" supported sure, but otherwise, it'll get pretty complicated (for e.g. to test ZFS on the "HDD" part of a storage server).
For the vast majority of a quick yabs check, it would of course be useful.

Sure, it's not going to be over-complicated. It'll make certain assumptions about the system that will hold for 99% of VPS users (i.e. a single root filesystem that's built-in like ext4 or xfs, no complex RAID or LVM setups or LUKS encryption, etc).
Essentially:
/boot/vmlinuz-$(uname -r)and a small custom initramfs, along with the info collected above/root
