Ah, my bad then. I didn't think of that being an issue (this also
applies to G.'s comments). Although, I still take slight issue that this
wording prevents the possibility of an instant runoff vote with
non-entity options (which we might want in the future, but I don't think
is needed right now).
I change my vote on Proposal 8199 to AGAINST.

The current "entities" text was introduced on purpose in 2017 by
Alexis's proposal 7922 (Clarity Act). To quote its comment:
[This splits off the portion of 955 that isn't actually related to
resolution. The definition of instant runoff is changed to evaluate
validity of options at the end of the voting period, and avoid
retroactively invalidating votes if an option drops out.]
