Under rubric v1.0, Bryq opens an 18-point lead on Adaface, 57 to 39, with both scored in the Assessment cohort. Bryq leads every one of the 7 criteria, Adaface none of them, and the closest of the 7 is Human Oversight Design, Adaface 50 to Bryq 54.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -18.0 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 18.0 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -18 beside that -18.0.

§ Evidence
Cited sources and documented absences, criterion by criterion.
An absence is a finding, not a blank: the reviewer looked for a named artefact and recorded that it is not located. Where a source sits is a fact about hosting only.
