> In that case I wonder why this phenomenon isn't a problem under Range voting? Is it because as long as I rate all the unwanted candidates sufficiently low, Range won't really note the distinction?
no, it's very simple. range voting doesn't give any incentive to raise D in order to hurt B or C. the most you can do to hurt B and C is to give them 0's.
