§ The result
Gem leads Qureos on all 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, Gem (Sourcing) opens a 22-point lead on Qureos (Screening), 55 to 33. Gem leads every one of the 7 criteria, Qureos none of them, and the closest of the 7 is Human Oversight Design, Gem 61 to Qureos 54. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Gem 66, Qureos 12 — and at an 18% weight it carries 44% of the weighted advantage Gem 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 +22.3 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 22.3 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +22 beside that +22.3.

§ 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.
