FWIW the type in of weights is one of the two options to do a 
proportional representation for the vote.
The other is the one we had used so far, by ranking the candidates from 
1st to n-th.

Both should serve our needs for proportional representation AFAICT and I 
don't assume they'd give us different results of the vote. But maybe 
Anton had a reason to pick one over the other.

If Anton decides it's worth redoing it, we maybe just do the other 
option and be a bit more resilient to misinterpretation.
