Never in the field of human conversation have so many words been used to say so little to so few... To summarise: Craig has criticised Approval on the basis of his "effective weight" criterion. Sadly, he can't give us any kind of defintion on what the heck this criterion might be. Until we have such a definition, we can't decide whether Approval passes it or fails it. Neither can we decide whether it is a good method to pass. *yawn*
