§ The result
HiredScore takes the total, Gloat takes more of the criteria.
HiredScore scores 52 and Gloat 47 under rubric v1.0 — a 5-point gap inside the Sourcing cohort. Gloat leads more of the criteria than HiredScore — 4 to 3 — but Article 11 Technical Documentation, which HiredScore leads, carries 20% of the rubric, and the weighted sum still falls to HiredScore. Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Gloat 48, HiredScore 65 — and at a 20% weight it carries 50% of the weighted advantage HiredScore holds across the 3 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -5.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 8.5 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -5 beside that -5.1.

§ 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.
