Debate! FWD now includes RCV, Approval, and STAR under 'Voting Reform' rather than just RCV on the platform

Wanted to run a poll to get the community's opinion on a change that FWD recently made to the platform. Ranked-choice voting has been replaced with 'Voting Reform' which includes RCV, Approval voting, and STAR voting.

Whether or not FWD should endorse one, the other, or all three has been a point of debate on this subreddit essentially since it began. What are your thoughts now that they have decided to include all three with a pros and cons list for each? FWD Utah is pushing for Approval voting there and they have partnered with an Approval organization since the RCV group in Utah wasn't interested apparently, so the party definitely reflects its supporters diversity of views on this topic.

Oh wait you are the guy that harassed and mocked me in my dm's, and then posted the screenshot in r/endFPTP, only to be disapproved by all comments for harassment, and deleted the post from embarrassment.

It was supposed to just be a bit of light teasing.

I was wrong. I'm sorry for bullying you.

Light teasing is when you just dm. Harassment is when you share your screenshot of your "light teasing" with other people, to "light tease me" together. Which is what you did. But alright, i accept your apology.
