You continue to repeat about perfect information. All methods work perfectly with perfect information. No method works perfectly without perfect information, but Condorcet is so near perfect even then that it's perfect for all practical purposes. But if no voting system is perfect without pefect information, then it's unclear what you're trying to say in the above-quoted paragraph, or how it can be interpreted as saying anything about Approval in comparison to other methods. If what you're trying to say is that Condorcet out-achieves Approval in some ways, than say that. We have no way of knowing what your point is unless you speak much more clearly than you have been.
