Axis by axis
Execution1 vs 2
Relicta leans harder on execution: Walking between switches; timing rarely matters
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance0 vs 0
Even - both lean on variance about the same.
Optimization7 vs 8
Relicta leans harder on optimization: Magnetism-gravity logic chains are the entire game
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
