§ The result
Tezi leads micro1 on all 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, Tezi opens a 22-point lead on micro1, 58 to 36, with both scored in the Screening cohort. Tezi leads every one of the 7 criteria, micro1 none of them, and the closest of the 7 is Article 11 Technical Documentation, micro1 50 to Tezi 52. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (micro1 20, Tezi 83) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 52% of the weighted advantage Tezi holds across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -21.8 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 21.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -22 beside that -21.8.

§ 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.
