Axis by axis

Execution9 vs 9

Even - both lean on execution about the same.

Reads0 vs 0

Even - both lean on reads about the same.

Variance0 vs 1

QWOP leans harder on variance: Physics is near-deterministic given inputs

Optimization3 vs 4

QWOP leans harder on optimization: A known optimal gait exists but executing it is everything

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