§ The result
Fuel50 leads Brazen on all 7 criteria.
Fuel50 finishes 20 points clear of Brazen under rubric v1.0 — 58 against 38 — across the Sourcing and Screening cohorts. Of the 7 criteria Brazen wins none, and the narrowest lead Fuel50 holds is on Post-Market Monitoring, Brazen 38 to Fuel50 40. Even Bias Audit Transparency, the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Brazen 30, Fuel50 68, 18% weight), is only 35% of the weighted advantage Fuel50 builds across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -19.3 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 19.3 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -20 beside that -19.3.

§ 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.
