FWIW: that threshold is 1.

If a candidate receives one direct vote, they should be elected.
I would go as far and argue that if a candidate receives one indirect
vote, they should be elected.

The OpenSTV GUI doesn't even allow an election with the number of
candidate equalling the number of available seats.  We will probably
add a dummy candidate to make it work the way we know it.
