approach
'This approach is worse' --- This approach exists! The presupposition is triggered by the definite article 'this.' 'Better' presupposes that both approaches exist (this and that one). And yes, the fact that they are comparable is indeed suggested by these two presuppositions :) Note that the existence of both approaches holds under negation 'This approach is not better' or 'worse'.
