§ The result
4 points separate Manatal and TestDome.
Manatal (ATS-integrated) edges TestDome (Assessment) by 4 points under rubric v1.0, 41 to 37. TestDome takes 1 of the 7 criteria, Article 11 Technical Documentation among them, against 6 for Manatal, whose share includes Post-Market Monitoring. Post-Market Monitoring is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Manatal 43, TestDome 30, 12% weight), but it accounts for only 31% of the weighted advantage Manatal holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +3.6 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 6.4 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +4 beside that +3.6.
