(Devs, question) Regarding PP, who wins the preparation if both are prepping the same system?

What is the actual case here? Is it the percentage, ie one system has 105% prepped and another 200% But the 105% one has 10000 points and the 200% one has 4000 points. Which one would actually win?
Ie is it the percentage that matters or is it the actual number?

"In order to work out who wins the preparation we look at all systems that are in the afforded top 10 lists of the powers.
Even if someone has done more preparation than anyone else if they can’t stump up the cash the cant prepare and they don’t count.
We then look at systems within exploitation radii of each other we take the most prepared systems and eliminate the others as Control systems cannot be contested and it is easier to eliminate them at this early stage.

This happened with the following systems:

LFT 37 (Sucessful) and Kappa Phoenicis (failed)
Kappa Fornacis (Sucessful) and Autahenetsi (failed)
Kaliki (Sucessful) and Mandh(failed)
Mendindui(Sucessful) and Kaukamine(failed)

If more than one power is preparing the same system e.g. Cartoi which was being prepared by both Aisling and Arrisa both of whom had enough CC the power with the highest preparation wins Aisling had the highest preparation value so took the system in to expansion.
This also happened in Anlave won by Hudson."
