§ The result
Indeed leads Arctic Shores on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Indeed holds a 4-point edge over Arctic Shores under rubric v1.0, 50 to 46, across the Sourcing and Assessment cohorts. Arctic Shores is ahead on none of the 7 criteria: Indeed takes 6, the remaining criterion is level, and the nearest of those 6 is Data Governance Disclosure, Arctic Shores 57 to Indeed 58. The widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing fall on different criteria: Post-Market Monitoring (Arctic Shores 30, Indeed 40) and Article 11 Technical Documentation at 20% (Arctic Shores 50, Indeed 58), the second being 33% of the weighted advantage Indeed holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -4.8 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 4.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -4 beside that -4.8.

§ 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.
