Axis by axis

Execution8 vs 7

Absolute Drift leans harder on execution: Sustained counter-steer control through every drift is the whole game

Reads0 vs 0

Even - both lean on reads about the same.

Variance0 vs 1

Driver leans harder on variance: Traffic adds mild unpredictability

Optimization4 vs 4

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.
