I wouldn't choose it either. This comment of mine is a response to you
seeming to claim that if a method allows equal-ranking and truncation,
this is a sufficient condition for it to be called "Condorcet/Approval."
If that's not what you were saying than I wonder what you meant in your
first mail that used the term "Condorcet/Approval"?
