Disadvantage of precision at k
In your example, with $k=10$, precision at $k=10$ does not change if we swap ranks 8 and 9, as we see in the bottom rows in your tables. … Conversely, precision at $k=8$ does change, because here it is not just a question of the relative position among the top $k=8$ - rather, the document either is among the top $k=8$, or it isn't. …
