No adaptive opponent
Variance3 vs 3

Persona 5
Fusion alerts and negotiation rolls
Primordia
Unknown solutions first time; nothing random

Persona 5
Confidant calendar routing and baton-pass weakness chains
Primordia
Logic puzzles are fixed and fully solvable
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
