"near full scale glideslope deflection below 100 feet"

"how many feet lower does being a half dot low equate to? Or a full dot"

Depending on the type and location of GS ground installation the aircraft indications will progressively show below the ideal path because of the parabolic nature of a reflected beam. Thus the GS scale is not a suitable indication of height or deviation at lower altitudes.
