§ The result
iMocha leads Ceipal on all 7 criteria.
iMocha finishes 21 points clear of Ceipal under rubric v1.0 — 56 against 35 — across the Assessment and ATS-integrated cohorts. iMocha leads every one of the 7 criteria and 3 of them by 20 raw points or more, Article 11 Technical Documentation among them; Ceipal leads none. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Ceipal 30, iMocha 68, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 36% of the weighted advantage iMocha holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -21.3 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 21.3 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -21 beside that -21.3.

§ 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.
