Evidence standard

What a good comparison should achieve

The point of a comparison page is not to create more content. The point is to remove route-choice hesitation and move the user into the right next step.

Show which route fits the stronger clue

Explain what kind of proof each route can produce

Reduce the odds of starting with the wrong scope or signal type

Next step

Use the comparison, then choose the route

If the comparison resolved the route-choice question, move directly into the matching workflow or compare package depth while the clue set is still clear.

The best next step is the route that matches the strongest clue, not the route with the most generic appeal.
