A question about this option:

Half of them allocated according to the primary, the other half according to final delegate counts of each candidate

If the first half are allocated by the primary results but the second half are awarded based on each candidate's share of the popular vote, that would mean the question would be settled as "some other way," right? I ask because this is one of the proposals floating around and although the results might be the same, the method to achieve them would be worded differently.

Yes, popular vote is not covered here, except for the first half which are based on the original primary votes.....
