Some of my prodedures would have ignored defeats in subcycles,
even if they're unanimous, so they were violating Pareto in
a particularly open way, and weren't examples of hidden
Pareto violation.
If some currently-considered proposals violate Pareto, or
might violate it, that would indeed make Pareto useful.
