Well actually it's LNHelp that gives you immunity to burial. (DSC, QR, and
MMPO are vulnerable in varying ways.) And sadly it seems to me that the
desirability of having other voters doubt that you will express a certain
lower preference, mitigates the advantage of LNHarm.
If you look at LNHelp instead you will probably start out with
Condorcet//Approval, which actually is one of my favorite methods due to
anti-burial properties. Maybe DAC is of interest too.
