Score and Approval are not the only rated systems. I favor a rated ballot - both more information and, if you can avoid the strategic burden, actually easier for the voter. But the way to avoid the strategic burden is with MJ or SODA. ("Avoid" in this context is not "eliminate", but "minimize to practical irrelevance".) Jameson
