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.

Do to no one what you would not want done to you.
If you want peace, work for justice.
