Axis by axis
Execution1 vs 2
Two Dots leans harder on execution: Dragging dots has no twitch dimension
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance3 vs 4
Two Dots leans harder on variance: Board layouts and drops add randomness per level
Optimization7 vs 7
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.
