I couldn't make much of the examples.  What I'd like to see at the
moment is an example, showing sincere and voted preferences, which
compares Condorcet(0) unfavorably with a Demorep method (or other
method) on any standard of his choice (perhaps Majority Rule). 
Then we'll have something we can sink our teeth into.
