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.
Variance1 vs 2
Subnautica leans harder on variance: Resource node placement mildly randomized.
Optimization9 vs 8
Crashmo leans harder on optimization: Solving the gravity-block puzzle is purely a logic solve
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
