I'm sorry, I didn't follow the special casing you do for "superdefeats".
Here's the corrected example:
40 A B C F (A requires 3:1 supermajority, F is the default option)
10 C B F A
10 F C A B
F defeats A (60:40) (scaled 3:1 from 20:40)
C defeats F (50:10)
B defeats F (50:10)
A defeats B (50:10) <--- every defeat below this one must be dropped
B defeats C (40:20)
A defeats C (40:20)
AdC gets dropped since it's weakest and involves A; BdC gets dropped
since it's weakest; then AdB gets dropped since it's equal weakest and
involves A.
Cheers,
