Distance between A and B are subjective according to each voter.
If you are (hypothetically) a binary thinker and think A and B are far apart and absolutely prefer A and hate B. And if I am (hypothetically) a nuanced thinker and can see plusses and minuses to both, and after careful consideration I choose B. Then should your vote matter more than mine?

No. But just because you view them differently doesn't mean there isn't a latent landscape that can't capture both these viewpoints within higher dimensions.
- tunesmith 4y agoYes, we are probably agreeing on some level. I've lost track. :) But back to the parent point, the "spread" between honest and strategic is probably smaller if restricted to election results that end in single-member smith sets.
