§ The result
Sova Assessment leads Talogy on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Sova Assessment scores 48 and Talogy 42 under rubric v1.0 — a 6-point gap inside the Assessment cohort. Sova Assessment leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so Talogy is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Sova Assessment leads is Article 11 Technical Documentation, Sova Assessment 55 to Talogy 53. FRIA Support is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Sova Assessment 40, Talogy 25, 15% weight), but it accounts for only 39% of the weighted advantage Sova Assessment 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 +5.7 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 5.7 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +6 beside that +5.7.

§ 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.
