Decision weights
Missing resort data remain eligible: unavailable evidence is omitted and confidence falls instead of the resort receiving a zero.

How Benchmark works
Priorities determine the structural ranking; optional trip context refines those priorities without excluding a resort. Evidence describes data support, Stability tests nearby priority changes, and Frontier marks a non-dominated option on comparable evidence.
Trip contextOptional
Use these only when they matter for this trip. They adjust ranking and interpretation; they are not hidden filters.
Bruneck is the strongest match because of strong terrain match · 84/100 — led by strong terrain profile and substantial ski-area scale; partial evidence, good reliability match · 66/100 — led by strong snow resilience; partial evidence. Chamonix is the strongest alternative. 5 options remain on the Pareto frontier. 4 options have limited evidence coverage.
