Axis by axis

Execution2 vs 2

Even - both lean on execution about the same.

Reads0 vs 0

Even - both lean on reads about the same.

Variance4 vs 4

Even - both lean on variance about the same.

Optimization6 vs 7

Raft leans harder on optimization: Raft expansion, food chains, and research order are solvable systems

Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
