I found this once: https://electionscience.github.io/vse-sim/

Voter Satisfaction Efficiency (VSE) is a way of measuring the outcome quality a voting method will give.

Which led me to learn about STAR Voting: https://www.starvoting.org/

It seems to have some similarities to STV mentioned in the video. Interesting that STV doesn't punish voters for voting for a popular candidate.

    But there are different methods to apportion those "excess" votes. Proportionally based on second choice, other runoff methods. Gets more complicated as you dig farther.
