Systems that allow for continuous vote shifting, where the voters can
see the changing results in real time, are naive-exag-proof. In such
systems, the differences between perception and reality vanish. A
candidate is either a frontrunner, or is not. Labels to the contrary
will be ignored, and will have no effect on the results.
