§ The result
Willo takes the total, Brazen takes more of the criteria.
Willo (Video interview) edges Brazen (Screening) by 3 points under rubric v1.0, 41 to 38. Brazen leads more of the criteria than Willo — 3 to 2 — but Human Oversight Design, which Willo leads, carries 12% of the rubric, and the weighted sum still falls to Willo. Human Oversight Design is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Brazen 46, Willo 62 — and at a 12% weight it carries 62% of the weighted advantage Willo holds across the 2 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 5 figures above sum to -2.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 3.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -3 beside that -2.4.
