Axis by axis
Execution9 vs 9
Even - both lean on execution about the same.
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance2 vs 1
Rolling Gunner leans harder on variance: Patterns are fixed once learned, minimal randomness
Optimization5 vs 4
Rolling Gunner leans harder on optimization: Scoring routes and the rolling-gun mechanic reward planning
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
