§ The result
Paradox leads Moonhub on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Paradox sits 11 points above Moonhub under rubric v1.0 — 41 against 30 — with Paradox filed under Scheduling and Moonhub under Sourcing. Paradox leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so Moonhub is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Paradox leads is Human Oversight Design, Moonhub 48 to Paradox 50. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Moonhub 18, Paradox 50 — and at an 18% weight it carries 53% of the weighted advantage Paradox holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -10.9 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 10.9 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -11 beside that -10.9.

§ 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.
