Cycles likely are not frequent, but elections with such combinations
of candidates desperately need attention that such as Plurality do not
offer - even if not truly cycle material.

I actually view this as possibly evidence of a possibly correctable
problem. Or at least "limitation."
It's the same when people say, why worry about scenarios with three
significant candidates? The real world doesn't have them.
But the election method, and other facets of the political framework,
affect who can be nominated, and where, in what quantities etc.
