Even "less sh*tty" is a valid criterion, though! I totally agree with your idea about the "illusion of choice", but it doesn't depend on the number of parties. With many smaller parties it would be even worse, since after the elections nobody has the majority and they have to create (to say as much politely as possible) "original" coalitions to rule a government which in the end is useless because most decisions are supranational.
