§ The result
PageUp leads Criteria on all 7 criteria.
PageUp sits 11 points above Criteria under rubric v1.0 — 64 (D) against 53 (F) — with PageUp filed under ATS-integrated and Criteria under Assessment. PageUp takes all 7 criteria and Criteria none of them; the nearest contest is Data Governance Disclosure, Criteria 62 to PageUp 63. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (Criteria 48, PageUp 80) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 52% of the weighted advantage PageUp holds across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -11.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 11.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -11 beside that -11.1.

§ 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.
