Andrei and Arminas over time
Andrei and Arminas appear together in 2 published lists, across 23 years of shared records. Andrei held the stronger position in more years in 2 of them, Arminas in 0.
The order between them changed and held in one of those lists — a change in that published list, never a claim that one name displaced the other.
Arminas reached its own highest recorded position earlier in 2 of those lists, and Andrei in none. Each position is a place inside its own list, so this compares when they peaked and never how high.
Counted list by list. Two names in the same published list are measured on the same scale in the same year, so those comparisons are real — but positions from different lists are not, so nothing here is combined into an overall standing.
