Source: Dan S. Felsenthal (2010), Appendix A2, Example 2 (continued) — see bv2146_krk2px_irv.yaml for the setup. The raise (2× Cleo>Ben>Ada → Ben>Cleo>Ada) only swaps Ben and Cleo on those ballots; Ada's position against each rival is untouched, so the pairwise table barely moves: Ada still beats Ben 9–8 and Cleo 9–8 and stays the Condorcet winner. Ranked Robin elects Ada before and after — monotone where the runoff procedure (the IRV race) flips.

Smith set (1 of 3): Ada Outside (2): Ben, Cleo One member ⇒ Ada is the Condorcet winner, beating every rival head-to-head. Ranked Robin (RCV-RR) winner Ada is INSIDE the Smith set. ✓ Guaranteed: Ranked Robin (Copeland) is Smith-efficient — every member of the set outscores every outsider, so the top of the win–loss table is always inside the set, however the tie among them is then broken.
