总分保留
The evidence coverage is insufficient for a single overall score. The dimension results below are evidence assessments, not a universal quality ranking.
结论
A compact EU option with clear taxes and terms. The assessment withholds an overall score because only Vilnius was verified and no independent performance evidence exists.
评估维度
Assessed dimensions have a score and rationale. Not-assessed dimensions remain visibly unknown; they are not assigned a neutral score.
