Just a note. The methods don't specify which dissatisfaction function to
use. See e.g. "Fully Proportional Representation as Resource
Allocation", which says "it is typical to use the Borda count scoring
function...". It is not, however, mandated: other scoring functions
(like Approval, or even the Kemeny hybrid I mentioned) could be used.
