Standing

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“Free/freemium for developers, with CI/CD integration and guided checks.” Grok 4.1 Fast · Website governance · budget prompt · alternative

“or Microsoft Accessibility Insights (free, no overlays)” Grok 4.1 Fast · Website governance · negative prompt · alternative

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

No model argued against it.

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Microsoft Accessibility Insights. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 4 of the 4 answers that named Microsoft Accessibility Insights and are not a share of its labels.
