What strategic problems do CR style ballots introduce into "Condorcet
tally methods" that are not already there with ranked ballots?

Just because "CR" is strategically equivalent to Approval doesn't mean
that use of CR style ballots for Condorcet like methods can only result in
more Approval equivalent methods.

If Condorcet style ballots were counted by Borda rules, then would we
blame the strategy problems on the ballot style, or on the counting
method?

All in Peace,
