§ The result
LinkedIn Recruiter leads Loxo on all 7 criteria.
LinkedIn Recruiter finishes 20 points clear of Loxo inside the Sourcing cohort under rubric v1.0: 57 against 37. LinkedIn Recruiter leads every one of the 7 criteria, Loxo none of them, and the closest of the 7 is FRIA Support, LinkedIn Recruiter 38 to Loxo 30. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (LinkedIn Recruiter 67, Loxo 30, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 38% of the weighted advantage LinkedIn Recruiter 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 +19.7 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 19.7 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +20 beside that +19.7.

§ 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.
