Capability is scored for both standards from the same design research, re-weighted. The money is not: a coastal refit has to be costed on its own, which is why it can read “not analysed” above while the score beside it is real.

The paper trail. Research finds references; you supply the documents behind them. Analysing a file revises the boat and records what changed, so the evidence and its effect stay together.
