Maybe the discussion is confusing, but won't it be worse if you discuss another eight criteria, or favor a less common term for the concept? I could see fleshing out the Woodall section at the bottom, calling out the ones that are Mono-raise variants vs. the other three that are implied by Participation (and so not as obviously relevant to the article's main topic).</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">A couple more responses:</div><div><br></div>

He states in particular a preference for DAC over IRV, due to these criteria, with DAC satisfying 7 of them vs. IRV's 3. But it certainly appears he devised the criteria before inventing DAC.</font></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-size: 13px;"><br></div><div dir="ltr" style=""><span style="font-size: 13px;">>I'm also wondering</span><br clear="none"><span style="font-size: 13px;">>why so many election-method experts seem to be conversant in the</span><br clear="none"><span style="font-size: 13px;">>distinction between these, but choose to call them all a single</span><br clear="none"><span style="font-size: 13px;">>criterion, as if there's a simple pass-fail relationship.</span><br clear="none"><br><div class="ydpc8703dc7yqt4775209306" id="ydpc8703dc7yqtfd08957" style="" dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><font size="3">(KV) I don't think that's what's happening, I think it's just code-switching based on what terminology will be familiar to the audience one is talking to at that moment. One can't possibly lump them all together as one criterion because basically FPP is the only method that satisfies them all.</font></div><div class="ydpc8703dc7yqt4775209306" id="ydpc8703dc7yqtfd08957" style="" dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><font size="3"><br></font></div><div class="ydpc8703dc7yqt4775209306" id="ydpc8703dc7yqtfd08957" style="" dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><font size="3">Kevin</font></div><div class="ydpc8703dc7yqt4775209306" id="ydpc8703dc7yqtfd08957" style="" dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><font size="3"><br></font></div></div></div>
