Where the gap comes from
Two scores side by side say one is higher. This says why: the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart, and each component’s share of the difference adds back to the difference exactly. Compared against Merkle, the highest scorer of those selected.

MerklevsCloudflare
+23.1points
- Availability+29.7
- Latency−13.9
- Head freshness*+9.4
- Correctness−2.2
The parts add to +23.1, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart. Components marked * were measured for only one of the two; the other’s weight is spread across what it does have, which is why the two sides can carry different weights for the same row.
