How the score was built

Each category is scored 0–100, then multiplied by its weight. The seven contributions sum to the quality score.

ESG is scored but carries no weight in this grade. Add ?esg=1 to the address to include it — the engine then redistributes weight across the other six, so the whole scorecard changes, not just one row.
