The Clarification_and_Amendment#Clarification_request:_Gun_control Survey

Could you enlighten me as to how that survey reads C as the outcome? Because from what I can see, there's 1 A, 3 B, 2 C, and one that is "A/sorta C" with the explanation that it's a clear A as their "sorta C" is about allowing the deletion, but they directly say that the community can overturn, so clearly it's not an AE action then and thus, clearly an A vote... How does then C win with less votes? Even if it was a C vote, it would still be B or C, so why would then C win and not B? Not saying it's wrong but I'm really not understanding how it would become like that as it currently feels like you're proposing to set forth a motion to the effect of declaring that 1+1=3 84.219.252.47 (talk) 17:04, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The set of deletions that C allows is a subset of what B would allow. If B does not pass, presumably everyone supporting B would then support C as a second choice. When you reallocate all B votes to C, the consensus is fairly clear. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 18:57, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

While I understand why C would pass if you just reassign all B votes to C, but why would you reassign them? It being a subset doesn't really make sense since then the argument is just as valid to reassign all C to B, and as I said already, B already is the majority so it's not like you're reassigning a minority number of votes to a majority to make it a bigger majority either. It's reassigning votes from a majority, to a minority in order for that minority to win that I don't understand.84.219.252.47 (talk) 03:46, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
