In this example, Margins fails weak 1st Choice. B is middle
CW. The A voters order-reverse. The C voters try to protect
B by voting B equal to C, but it doesn't help.
151 100 100
A B C & B
C
The only way the C voters can protect the win of B, the CW,
is by actually voting B _over_ their favorite.
You say B can prevent the order-reversal succeeding by
ranking C over A? But then that makes it all the easier
for C to order-reverse against B. To call that
protection of B is stretching the meaning of protection.
