§ The result
HackerRank leads Dover on all 7 criteria.
HackerRank sits 10 points above Dover under rubric v1.0 — 55 against 45 — with HackerRank filed under Assessment and Dover under Sourcing. HackerRank leads every one of the 7 criteria, Dover none of them, and the closest of the 7 is Post-Market Monitoring, Dover 44 to HackerRank 45. Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Dover 34, HackerRank 60 — and at a 20% weight it carries 51% of the weighted advantage HackerRank 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 -10.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 10.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -10 beside that -10.1.

§ 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.
