§ The result
1 point separates Loxo and micro1.
Loxo (Sourcing) edges micro1 (Screening) by 1 point under rubric v1.0, 37 to 36. micro1 takes 1 of the 7 criteria, Article 11 Technical Documentation among them, against 5 for Loxo, whose share includes Post-Market Monitoring, and 1 is level. The widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing are the same criterion, Article 11 Technical Documentation, and micro1 holds it (Loxo 30, micro1 50, 20% weight), worth 100% of the weighted advantage micro1 builds across the 1 criterion it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +1.0 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 9.0 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +1 beside that +1.0.

§ 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.
