Approval voting simplifies things but also has limitations because it removes any weight/preference people may have.
Yes, but nowhere near the problems of IRV. If those particular limitations bother you, as I said:
If you want to take on a little complexity for some further improvement, use delegable yes/no voting.
. . . don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
I see zero “good” in IRV, for all the reasons outlined in the rant. Its failures are absurd and beyond unacceptable given that there are strictly better and simpler alternatives. Don’t let something shiny and terrible stop you from using something actually quite good.
Any thoughts on the alternative I mentioned, DYN, described here?
