Axis by axis
Execution2 vs 1
Observation leans harder on execution: Camera control and interface manipulation
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance2 vs 2
Even - both lean on variance about the same.
Optimization5 vs 4
Observation leans harder on optimization: Systems puzzles and station schematics solving
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
