I think you can have burial in methods that pass LNHelp too, unless the 
method also passes LNHarm. LNHelp-complying methods could still reward a 
move from, say, A>B>C to A>C>B (where the point would be to keep B from 
winning more than to get A to win).

See, for instance, Kevin Venzke's post:

, or James Green-Armytage's:
