Head to head

Five projections, ten pairings, one page each. Every page reports the same things: what each of the two holds exact, where each one pays for it, and which places they disagree about most. Cross-projection figures appear only on these pages, and every one of them travels with its baseline - the tool never puts two of them side by side, and each page says why.
