I guess the main driver has been that winning votes is more tolerant  
than margins against strategic burying in some scenarios. (There are  
however also corresponding strategy related claims/scenarios in the  
other direction too.)

(The benefits of winning votes in the strategic scenarios might not  
outweigh the losses with sincere votes and losses in some other  
strategic scenarios, especially if strategic voting is marginal in all  
Condorcet methods when applied in typical political elections.)
