I’m not the one who mixes them up… The one I replied to was presenting RCV as a panacea that would help with this party voting when in fact it entrenches the most popular party and remove most chances of other party to ever win an election.

If you want smaller parties to win, RCV isn’t the solution, you need proportional representation. You can combine both though, but that’s not what was implied in the comment that I replied to.
