§ The result
SHL leads Dice on all 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, SHL (Assessment) opens a 15-point lead on Dice (Sourcing), 51 to 36. SHL takes all 7 criteria and Dice none of them; the nearest contest is Human Oversight Design, Dice 55 to SHL 58. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Dice 32, SHL 60, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 38% of the weighted advantage SHL 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 -14.6 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 14.6 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -15 beside that -14.6.

§ 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.
