Given a Condorcet cycle, how does anyone justify awarding a winner outside?

True that deciding the winner among cycle members can be a challenge.

BUT, we know that every candidate outside the cycle has been voted as a loser to each member of the cycle.

What's the difference?  The Copeland winner wins, and
approval is used
as the tie-break?


The difference is that in C//A you do not have to be in the Smith set to
win.
