§ The result
SHL leads Entelo on all 7 criteria.
SHL finishes 18 points clear of Entelo under rubric v1.0 — 51 against 33 — across the Assessment and Sourcing cohorts. SHL leads every one of the 7 criteria and 3 of them by 20 raw points or more, Article 11 Technical Documentation among them; Entelo leads none. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Entelo 30, SHL 60, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 33% 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 -18.2 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 18.2 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -18 beside that -18.2.

§ 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.
