§ The result
Indeed leads Crosschq on 4 of the 7 criteria.
Indeed (Sourcing) edges Crosschq (Screening) by 3 points under rubric v1.0, 50 to 47. Indeed leads 4 of the 7 criteria and the remaining 3 are level, so Crosschq is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 4 Indeed leads is Human Oversight Design, Crosschq 62 to Indeed 63. One criterion, Article 11 Technical Documentation, is both the widest raw gap (Crosschq 50, Indeed 58) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 20% weight it makes up 52% of the weighted advantage Indeed holds across the 4 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 4 figures above sum to -3.1 — 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 -3 beside that -3.1.

§ 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.
