The loss of pilots was similar on both sides.
As far as Britain was concerned a draw was enough to stay in the fight.
Germany gave up the attempt and concentrated its efforts elsewhere.
So a tactical draw but strategic defeat for Germany.

The LW were tasked with obtaining air superiorty. The RAF prevented the LW from gaining air superiority. I don't see how that makes it a draw.

Exactly. Germany set an objective and were prevented from finishing that. Hence they lost.

Using the 'draw' or no winner thing...you could apply the same thought to the Ardennes offensive or about half the battle of WW2.
