improvement(compare): accuracy and consistency pass on comparison pages
Cross-checked facts across all comparison pages against live sources,
corrected a few internal inconsistencies, and added one new fact category.
No schema or rendering changes beyond a single new row.

"A crew deployed to CrewAI AMP runs as a server-side job on CrewAI's own infrastructure, triggered by its kickoff API, a webhook, or a third-party scheduler (ActivePieces, Zapier, Make.com) calling that API; no client device needs to stay open for that run to fire or complete. The self-hosted open-source framework, by contrast, has no first-party scheduling daemon: a crew or flow only runs when something (a cron job, a long-running script, or a developer's own process) invokes it on a machine the operator keeps running, so unattended execution there depends on infrastructure the developer sets up themselves, not a client device.",
