Hi, It's true that *with the ballots as cast* any Condorcet-compliant method would have worked identically. What you don't know until you try it, is whether voters would actually cast those ballots, given the incentives created by the method. That said, I don't see an obvious reason why Tideman or MinMax would have gone differently.
