Axis by axis
Execution8 vs 8
Even - both lean on execution about the same.
Reads2 vs 3
Virtual Pool 3 leans harder on reads: Human opponents adapt; AI follows fixed skill
Variance2 vs 1
Project CARS leans harder on variance: Dynamic weather injects some session randomness
Optimization6 vs 7
Virtual Pool 3 leans harder on optimization: Shot selection and positional play are deeply solvable
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
