Reason:

Conduct to pro for the forfeit.

Arguments. While both sides gave me reasons why one is better, neither side really gave me any framework to determine who was right. It’s a common problem - but essentially part of the argument should be what constitutes being better, and why.

My issue here, as a result, is that both sides gave reasons as to why one was better than the other: but any attempt to weigh this would be completely arbitrary without a framework - especially considering the arguments being made where themselves subjective (such as being chilled - or that best is more completely matching the genre).
