How the two are built

Agent roles and six team stats. 6 of the fingerprint's dimensions
same role mix Their most-used lineups have the same numbers of duelists, initiators, controllers and sentinels.

“Not settled” means this sample does not separate the two values. The sample column is the smaller of the two teams' samples, in the unit that dimension counts, because a comparison is only as strong as its thinner side. These dimensions are not all independent: the structure ones restate how rigid a lineup is from different angles and move together, so read them as one family rather than as separate agreements.

Role mix = the number of duelists, initiators, controllers and sentinels in a lineup.

This dimension does not separate teams. A team's position here moves between samples, so the order below is not a standing. It is shown because a flat dimension is a finding, and dimmed everywhere else on the site for the same reason.
