Pretty even.
"The Master Key" is a van Rijn story because van Rijn, even on Earth, solves a problem on another planet whereas "Esau" is an Emil Dalmady story because Dalmady solves the problem and recounts it to van Rijn on Earth.

Kaor, Paul!
And the question Old Nick wanted to answer in "Esau" was what KIND of man Emil Dalmady was. As it was he decided, and Dalmady came to agree, that Emil was an entrepreneurial type, not simply an administrator. An imaginative risk taker.
