Dolphin Boost vs MG4 SE
01The cut
Dolphin Boost and MG4 SE split the numbers that move a decision. You would not notice RRP, After grant and UK grant.
A win is counted only where the gap is one you would notice, and only where two independent hosts agree on the figure. One-source numbers still print. Missing figures stay blank. We do not invent a score.
