Jeremy, if no version of Grand Shatranj makes it, I expect the person who strongly dislikes cannons would be less disappointed than if the version with cannons did make it. Let me illustrate your example by substituting in different candidates. Suppose Condoleeza Rice, Hilary Clinton, and Ralph Nader are running for president, the condorcet method is used, and Ralph Nader wins. Should we suppose that supporters of Clinton would have been happier if Rice won, because if they supported one woman for president they probably favored a woman president?
