While for the most part it is beneficial for everyone if the Co-Op bridge is present, I would imagine there is at least one scenario where it is in a team's best interest to make sure the Co-Op bridge is not balanced. This is a strategy decision and it is unfair to say they are acting against the idea of Gracious Professionalism and not know why they chose to make that decision.

If you want the bridge balanced, the other teams on the alliance can probably be convinced to help you with that, as it may be in their best interest for that to happen.
