§ The result
1 point separates Dice and Ceipal.
Dice (Sourcing) edges Ceipal (ATS-integrated) by 1 point under rubric v1.0, 36 to 35. Ceipal and Dice each lead 3 of the 7 criteria, with 1 level, though the side of the split Dice holds (headed by Human Oversight Design) adds up to more weighted points. One criterion, Human Oversight Design, is both the widest raw gap (Ceipal 46, Dice 55) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 12% weight it makes up 45% of the weighted advantage Dice holds across the 3 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -1.6 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 3.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -1 beside that -1.6.

§ 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.
