This is not true. Look at the German electorate, which is dominated by five parties which often form coalitions. The CDU/CSU conservative coalition formed grand Coalitions with the centre left SPD quite a few times successfully, after neither side could form a majority coalition.

Edit: upon revisiting my comment, strike the first sentence. Regardless, conservatives do have control in Germany. Even if it's just through coalitions. Coalitions are amazing and so is ranked choice voting.
