§ The result
PageUp leads UKG on all 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, PageUp opens a 20-point lead on UKG, 64 (D) to 44 (F), with both scored in the ATS-integrated cohort. PageUp leads every one of the 7 criteria, UKG none of them, and the closest of the 7 is FRIA Support, PageUp 40 to UKG 35. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (PageUp 80, UKG 30) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 45% of the weighted advantage PageUp holds across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +20.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 20.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +20 beside that +20.1.

§ 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.
