Proportional representation only looks good on a spreadsheet. It's terrible when you consider power dynamics, which you should when thinking about political systems.

As if First Past the Post didn't have shitty power dynamics.

You mean like the shit power dynamic of a party always forming a majority government with only 40% of the vote?
