§ The result
Dover takes the total, Coderbyte takes more of the criteria.
Dover (Sourcing) edges Coderbyte (Assessment) by 3 points under rubric v1.0, 45 to 42. Coderbyte leads more of the criteria than Dover — 4 to 3 — but Bias Audit Transparency, which Dover leads, carries 18% of the rubric, and the weighted sum still falls to Dover. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (Coderbyte 20, Dover 52) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 90% of the weighted advantage Dover holds across the 3 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -2.8 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 10.0 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 -2.8.

§ 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.
