Ludicrous. Bayesian Regret results for instance show Approval Voting doing quite well even with 100% strategic voting.

There is even a theorem that, under plausible models of voter strategy, Approval Voting will tend to elect Condorcet winners (i.e. candidates who beat all rivals by a head-to-head majority).
