The ironic thing here is that FPTP would, of course, lead to much more exciting elections when we have more than one candidate.

First past the post, i.e. no preferential voting. Someone can win with a plurality. It'd really be a lot more interesting. Of course the downside is it might benefit the larger parties, but then again we already have a 2 + 2 half parties system so...
So there would be a run off?Huh
