I've heard that the weighted vote feature is somehow connected to ranked-choice voting but I'm not clear how. There was a big push several years ago to implement this kind of voting. Now I wonder if it was cover to introduce this type of algorithm.

You are right.

It is implemented for ranked choice voting. Shiva is a retard for asking "WHY would a voting machine have this feature?".

It is for ranked choice: Your 1st choice is given 1 vote, 2nd choice is given 0.5 votes, 3rd is given 0.25, etc, as an example.
