I have shown several examples where (CC)SCRRIRVE performs BETTER than wv at resisting Burying,
and I have not been able to find ANY in which it performs worse. If one could be found, you'd
think that a veteran prolific-poster wv advocate would be kind enough to post it.
I reply:
As I said, all an example can prove is that a method fails a criterion. If you want to show that SCRRIRVE passes a criterion, you need to demonstrate it. Showing an example in which SCRRIRVE doeesn't fail a criterion doesn't prove anything.
Chris, you've found several examples in which SCRRIRVE resists offensive order-reversal better than wv does. But with wv, defensive truncation or defensive equal-ranking can reliably make it impossible for offensive order-reversal to succeed. Is that true of SCRRIRVE? It's for you to show. In wv, truncation can't steal an election from a CW under conditions that I've described. Is that true of SCRRIRVE?
That's why I say that SCRRiRVE's properties haven't been determined. A few examples won't do.
