In the universe of the authors, it is not mere semantics. there is a real difference from a logical point of view between you vote not counting and your choices lacking meaningful distinctions. And, again, if you vote "matter" even de minimus difference are reason enough to vote. Thw distinction is next to no cost to you (e.g. gas to get to the polls) against no cost to you at all.
