§ The result
HiredScore leads Talkpush by 6 points.
HiredScore scores 52 and Talkpush 46 under rubric v1.0, a 6-point gap across the Sourcing and Screening cohorts. HiredScore leads 5 of the 7 criteria, including Article 11 Technical Documentation, while Talkpush leads 1, including Post-Market Monitoring, and 1 is level. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (HiredScore 65, Talkpush 52, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 35% of the weighted advantage HiredScore holds across the 5 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +6.2 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 8.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +6 beside that +6.2.

§ 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.
