Axis by axis
Execution8 vs 7
Absolute Drift: Zen Edition leans harder on execution: Sustained drift control is a pure motor-mastery test
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance0 vs 1
Shank leans harder on variance: Hand-built levels with no randomness
Optimization3 vs 3
Even - both lean on optimization about the same.
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
