Which should you buy?
What decides this is not the score, it is the display. Meta Adventurer shows nothing and answers through the speakers, while Meta Ray-Ban Display shows information on the lens. Reading is far faster than listening, but you pay for it in battery, price and discretion.
Meta Adventurer wins the overall score by 0.9 points, but that score averages six criteria and you will only use some of them.
Battery is not close: Meta Adventurer lasts 8 hours against 6 h for the Meta Ray-Ban Display. At that gap, one lasts the day and the other does not.
Both have manufacturer-confirmed language support.
On price, Meta Adventurer is 500 $ cheaper.
