In theory a tide-locked world with no liquid water can have Habitability 6.

Why is that so bad ? Such a world would have a breathable atmosphere and temperate climate. The water may be frozen, but you only have to get ice to warmer areas to have sunshine melt it. That´s a lot better than what we have on mars for example.
