You guys seem to forget the biggest difference btwn TTR or
primary/general and IRV  is that ALL voters are free to participate in
the second of the TTR elections or the general election - completely
unlike all the voters with expired ballots in the final IRV counting
rounds - esp. when their number of choices are restricted. THINK about
it instead of continuing this steady stream of mouth-open, brain-shut
nonsense.

Plus there are numerous other differences. Re-read my paper on the
flaws of IRV or re-read my affidavit to refresh yourselves on some of
the differences between the two methods (two elections versus IRV).
They are not remotely equivalent.
