Allen,
Your statement is flatly false.
in a non-runoff FPTP single-person-position system, every voter has
their first place choice tabulated and no one has any second-choice
considered and all voters' ballots are treated equally.
This is obviously not true with IRV.

Yes some voters have second-choice considered but they are all still
treated equally.
I agree when you say IRV voters whose first-choice loses in the first
round have their second choices considered.
I do not understand why you conclude that then obviously IRV does
not consider the ballots
I decided to write a little story to share with the voting geeks on
Christmas. Enjoy and Merry Christmas!

A large housing complex was under construction, and a locksmith was hired to
install the locks on all the apartments. He suggested that they key all the
locks to use the same key.

I do find that ballots (2nd choices) of some, but not all
voters is considered with IRV, and hence my opinion is that it does
not treat all voters' ballots equally
