"In another paper, Woodall proves that no election method can
simultaneously meet later-no-harm, later-no-help, monotonicity,
and mutual majority. Therefore, the fact that Minimax(pairwise
opposition) violates mutual majority in such a drastic manner
can be considered a consequence of the fact that it meets
later-no-harm, later-no-help, and monotonicity."
