§ The result
4 points separate Pin and Dice.
Within the Sourcing cohort, Pin edges Dice by 4 points under rubric v1.0, 40 to 36. Pin leads 5 of the 7 criteria, including Bias Audit Transparency, while Dice leads 2, including Human Oversight Design. The advantage Pin holds is spread out: Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Dice 25, Pin 35, 18% weight), yet it supplies only 37% of the weighted points Pin gains across the 5 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -3.9 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 5.9 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -4 beside that -3.9.

§ 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.
