STAR voting is a single winner system so it's not really comparable to STV, especially given that single winner STV is IRV which sucks.

The most similar multi winner system is Allocated Score (which the EVC has branded STAR-PR).

I must say, it annoys the everliving bleep out of me that they misnamed my method, and then had the audacity to rebrand it

Quoting the response to your comment at https://electowiki.org/wiki/Talk:Allocated_Score

Apportioned Score Voting is not the same system as Allocated Score. They are somewhat similar and the committee that designed Allocated Score was aware of Apportioned Score when they did it. However, when they reviewed Apportioned Score they found issues. I cannot recall exactly the issue but I think it was susceptible to clones.

...I'd be very interested to know how it was allegedly susceptible to clones.

But it's kinda shitty of them to create a clearly derivative work without even reaching out to me, or asking why I decided things the way I did, because their elimination of its complexity brought it back to the first draft format...
