Wow.  This is soon going to degenerate into a comparison of FPTP vs. PR/STV
voting methods.

Folks, the poll is structured like a ballot, but my understanding is that it
is really more like a vox pop.  The good people in Toronto are going to the
trouble to do some market research before they enhance the compiler -- this
is a Good Thing(tm).  Let's not get to the point where recounts are demanded
when somebody's favourite feature doesn't make it into the compiler.
