[EM] Resume: Proportional multi-winner ranked voting methods - guidelines?

[Toby Pereira]

People often talk about Droop proportionality but proportionality for solid coalitions can be Droop or Hare. If a ranked system meets neither, it probably isn't proportional as most people would define it.

I do not regard Droop proportionality as an important criteria to meet. 
It is based on looking at each ballot one candidate at a time, right?

Looking at one candidate at a time is what instant-runoff voting does, 
and we know how unfair that can be.
