Are you looking for the English language meaning of sincerity or some technical definition of it (e.g. some voting related criterion)? What is the problem with sincerity in Plurality?
I'm not Abd, but I think the reasoning goes like this: If people vote according to VNM utilities, then they'll vote their preference among the candidates their vote has some chance of influencing. From such a point of view, "lesser of two evils" would not be strategy, since one would only be able to influence a decision between those "evils" in the first place.
