How about choosing a sport that actually uses ranked choice to determine winners?

Has ranked choice voting been implemented elsewhere and been shown to increase the quality of candidates?
I’d argue that you don’t really need empirical data for that, since game theory already proves that’s the case.
Ranked-choice voting has been implemented elsewhere. It reduces the incidence of ‘strategic voting’, where voters see that their preferred candidate is non-viable, and so vote for a candidate that they dislike (but less than the other leading candidate).
The point isn’t ‘quality of candidates’, which is highly subjective, but to more accurately reflect the will of the voters.
How is ranked choice voting like a March Madness bracket? I thought ranked choice voting was where you rank candidates based on preference. A bracket is basically a series of binomial choices and would be closer to the system we have now.
