That's an interesting fact that Bruce pointed out, about Arrow's
Independence from Irrelevant Alternatives Criterion being equivalent
to the No Spoiler Criterion. It hadn't occurred to me that 
IIAC could be considered a LO2E criterion, because it's worded
in terms of the removal of an alternative instead of the addition
of one. But apparently IIAC is a very demanding LO2E criterion,
un-meetable by any reasonable method.
