[aside: that construct looks a lot like what we were talking about off-list] Interesting, and it didn't even require supermajority, just five options. Drats. I guess that means I should either change the name (pull out smith) or change the mechanism. Straw poll (mostly I'm interested in hearing what people who have sponsored the proposal think): should I go for the quick fix (change name from Smith/Condorcet to Condorcet, limit ballots to less than five distinct options), or should I go for the real fix (supplement step the new A.6(6) with smith criteria)?
