It's not pedantry to say a broken model is being replaced by a slightly less broken model. You'll get bad results with either one.

In this case, it leads to thinking that two candidates on opposite sides of the left-right axis are similar just because they share a place on the libertarian-authoritarian axis. You still have to make a left-right jump which shows you weren't well grounded on that axis.
