No, it really isn’t. A closer analogy is that produce that is either red or orange is exempt from the produce tariffs, ultrafilter voting is red, and range voting is orange. If you aren’t willing to study the details then I am not going to respond any further. I’ve paid 10 karma to respond now entirely because I think ultrafilters are great and people should learn about them, but they have nothing to do with range voting.
So were you wrong to say that all “infinite voter systems avoid the consequences of Arrow’s Theorem” (“both red and orange are exempt”), or were you wrong to reject my point about range voting’s infinite effective voters being proof that it avoids the consequences of Arrow’s Theorem?
On the one hand, you want to say that the broad principle is true (“apples and oranges are exempt”/”all infinite voter systems are exempt”), but on the other hand, you don’t want to agree that the broad principle has the implications I suggested (“Navals are oranges and thus exempt”/”Range voting has infinite voters as is thus exempt”).
And a resolution of that inconsistency really does not require a thorough review of the cited sources.
