For one thing, Condorcet discourages honesty, because, even if you

would have defeated Worse. To do your best to defeat Worse, you have
to vote Favorite below Compromise. You have to say with your vote
that Condorcet is better than Favorite. Consider that before you
criticize Approval for not letting you vote Favorite over a needed
compromise.
What is going on here?
I properly have to rank Favorite above Compromise. Exactly how can
this fail?
