§ The result
Pinpoint leads eSkill on all 7 criteria.
Pinpoint finishes 16 points clear of eSkill under rubric v1.0 — 57 against 41 — across the ATS-integrated and Assessment cohorts. Pinpoint takes all 7 criteria and eSkill none of them; the nearest contest is Human Oversight Design, eSkill 57 to Pinpoint 64. Even Article 11 Technical Documentation, the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (eSkill 48, Pinpoint 72, 20% weight), is only 30% of the weighted advantage Pinpoint builds across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -15.8 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 15.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -16 beside that -15.8.

§ 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.
