Axis by axis
Execution7 vs 6
Dirt 5 leans harder on execution: Sliding off-road cars on mixed surfaces is the whole test
Reads2 vs 2
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance2 vs 3
Moving Out 2 leans harder on variance: Level layouts are fixed but object physics introduce chaos
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.
