[EM] Re: AWP versus DMC and AM

James et al.,

You may find the revisions on

to be of interest.  If you don't see the changes, refresh your browser

James, try MRAV using strong preference as the secondary defeat
strength on some examples, and tell me if you get a result different
from what you would expect.

Forest, Chris, I think that with the revised definitions the method is
now correctly equivalent to Approval Sorted Margins [aka PSA-Min(AM)].

Note that in the example I give, the DMC winner, "Brad", is found on
practically the first step.  Well, I'm not counting the matrix
reordering.  But determining whether Brad is marginally defeated takes
many additional steps.
