Abstract

Sönmez and Yenmez (2022) suffer from a technical shortcoming. The paper claims to characterize the over-and-above-choice rule, albeit without formally defining the axioms. Given the axioms' informal description, we show that the claimed characterization is incorrect. The error stems from the statement of the ``over-and-above" axiom. By rigorously re-formulating this axiom, we repair and prove the characterization result.
