§ The result
PageUp leads Ribbon on all 7 criteria.
PageUp finishes 21 points clear of Ribbon under rubric v1.0 — 64 (D) against 43 (F) — across the ATS-integrated and Screening cohorts. PageUp leads every one of the 7 criteria, Ribbon none of them, and the closest of the 7 is Customer Documentation, PageUp 63 to Ribbon 58. Bias Audit Transparency is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (PageUp 80, Ribbon 38, 18% weight), but it accounts for only 37% of the weighted advantage PageUp holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +20.6 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 20.6 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +21 beside that +20.6.

§ 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.
