"Majority criterion" has a specific meaning. It in effect says that a
majority can elect their first preference without concealing lower
preferences. You can hardly say that Range satisfies MF on the argument
that a majority could have concealed their lower preferences. That
would be like saying a product is free of charge to you because you can
choose not to buy it.
