Now what the comparison shows is that for ilvl200 weapons, a polearm (Wraith Spear) is the best choice (over a commonly used weapon, Colossal Skull-Clad Cleaver, and it beats out even a ilvl213 weapon, Death's Bite

Implying that Wraith Spear is superior to Death's Bite is simply misleading. The polearm may have come out ahead in your custom-crunched numbers, but it has slightly lower base damage and significantly less AP for the gain of something around one percent of crit.

Also for some reason your weights give 4.62 rating to haste and zero rating to hit, which would only be true over the white hit cap (and we have no idea whether or not this is the case). And even past the white cap, having a good weapon with hit rating gives us room to swap out other gear if needed, in order to use items with the most desirable stats.
