P2 was a rule that seemed a bit weak. It said things like: When the candidates are {A,B,C,D,E}, then the set of winners is unaltered by rewriting this paper...

Rather than show IFPP differs from STV, here a check is done to see if it disagrees with the "shouldn't count papers twice when transferring" idea that was STV...
Once P4 is checked then it could be used in software that checks STV. Software to add dots. The last P4 formulae had a wrong term which summed the absolute...
