you are completely impervious to the significance of the points that make you mistaken.
Name a single point that you believe makes me mistaken. Chances are I've already heard it and refuted it. There is not a single point where you could say that IRV is better than Range Voting. Not one, at least that's ever been presented yet.
And indeed, I see you've gone on to claim that I am mistaken in my own personal preferences, so you've gone beyond all previous benchmarks of arrogance.
Well, it's the truth. You'll derive significantly greater satisfaction if you use Range Voting. So to say you think IRV will make you more satisfied is wrong - unless you (bizarrely) feel that using IRV would be so much "fun" that it would make up for your dissatisfaction with the election results.
I thought I could continue to clarify this simple matter of terminological classification, but even there it turns out that your bewilderment is too great to overcome. Sorry.
IRV is STV. If I started calling it "Instant Duo Voting" whenever STV was used for two-seat elections, that wouldn't change the fact that we were still using STV, even if it was also called IDV. I'll keep calling myself a chordate, even though I'm a mammal, and a human. I hope that doesn't bewilder you too much.
