Line 126:
=== "There are other systems which are better in some ways"? Yes, but SODA is better in other ways. ===
This is true. [[Condorcet]], [[Range Voting]], and Median systems like [[Majority Approval Voting]] (or others: [[Majority Judgment]], [[MCA]], or [[Bucklin]]) each have some claim to be the "best voting system". But SODA is the best system which has no downsides versus plurality. All those other systems require more-complicated ballots. All of them require more-complicated, or even dishonest, strategic decisions from the voter, to get the most effective vote.
So in the end, while any of those other systems would be, in my opinion, a clear net benefit versus plurality, with SODA you don't need any qualifications like "'''net''' benefit" or "in my opinion". It is simply better, in every way.
