I understand it's a competition, but that doesn't mean you go around not helping other teams because it "might" help you down the road.

For what it's worth, I wouldn't really try this particular situation either, but more for fealisibility issues listed above than anything.
Valid concern, but I interpreted the plan as "let's give this team the code so our alliance will have an advantage for the beginning of the match". I merely stated that because in the long run, that plan will bite them in the butt. But if this was truly for pure altruistic purposes, I am sorry for being cynical.
