§ The result
Vincere leads micro1 by 8 points.
Vincere scores 44 and micro1 36 under rubric v1.0, an 8-point gap across the ATS-integrated and Screening cohorts. The 7 criteria split 6 to 1 in favour of Vincere: Vincere is ahead on FRIA Support and micro1 on Bias Audit Transparency. FRIA Support is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (micro1 22, Vincere 38, 15% weight), but it accounts for only 27% of the weighted advantage Vincere 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 -8.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 9.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -8 beside that -8.4.

§ 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.
