Aha, just found the multi-winner math for STV. Please ignore this part
of my arguments. The other parts still apply.
Not sure how many people are aware of this but the Australian Senate
has been using multi-winner STV since 1948. The state of Tasmania has
been doing the same since 1907.

There has been plenty of discussion in Australia about the pros and cons
of this system going back more than a century.
