is still that the voter has no good basis on which to decide whether to
rank equally, or strictly rank two candidates.  

The voter's basis for ranking a candidate higher, less than, or equal to
another candidate is independent of the method. If what you're saying is
that the voter doesn't know how to vote insincerely to trick the method
into electing her candidate under false pretenses, I would say that is a
good thing.
