In my opinion, if C is able to convince *every voter* to acknowledge
that he is better than the major party alternative, then C is surely
not a bad result.
As long as truncation is allowed, and voters have the opportunity to
learn how the method works, I don't think "weak" CWs would be a real
problem. If they're not "good enough" to win at all, people should not
be giving them votes.
