The fact that Biden could be brain-dead or dead-dead before a second term comes into play and therefore require a political re-boot in 2024 is all the more reason to tacitly "support" the guy.

The latter is a completely fair point. It might depend which black woman is his running mate and how one feels about her too (btw. that it has to be a black woman annoys me). As for Biden, most of my points were made in comparison, I did not plan to hide that, nor do I think Biden is an inherently good candidate. I still think my list is fair. It is Biden or Trump, after all.

At times I feel those that vote third party are somewhat eased by knowing their pick will not make it anyway and hence they don't have to live with anything. No shot against Jorgensen, don't know her much. But of course it's also true for you, when you vote for her you keep your vote out of the actual race, and I would have assumed that had to go with some kind of refusal of my list. 
Also, you want Americans to show Trump the door, so you root for a certain outcome, but you yourself don't want to contribute to it.
