Axis by axis

Execution7 vs 7

Even - both lean on execution about the same.

Reads0 vs 0

Even - both lean on reads about the same.

Variance3 vs 3

Even - both lean on variance about the same.

Optimization4 vs 5

Duke Nukem 3D leans harder on optimization: Level structure and secret routing reward systematic exploration

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