I just want to support this viewpoint. It is not essential how many criteria a 
mehod violates. It is more important how bad those violations are, i.e. if the 
method likely have serious problems or not. The best method might well be a 
method that violates multiple criteria, but manages to spread the  
(unavoidable) problems evenly so that all of them stay insignificant.
