After thinking more about this proposition, I think the Approval formula
(see http://ElectionMethods.org/Approval-formula.htm) applies to
Condorcet voting also. The Approval formula simply says to approve any
candidate that is above the expected value of the entire election. The
same reasoning applies to Condorcet voting. The difference is that, in
Condorcet, the voter ranks the approved candidates, and the unapproved
candidates are not ranked at all.
I comment:
That shows what happens when someone uses formulas about whose meaning he
hasn't a clue.
