Axis by axis
Execution8 vs 9
Super Monkey Ball 3D leans harder on execution: Precise tilt control under gravity is the entire test
Reads1 vs 1
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance1 vs 2
Super Monkey Ball 3D leans harder on variance: Levels are fixed with little randomness
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.
