I think the bigger assumption in that statement is "do it each time". Fast (sub 1 minute) and consistent 30+ point climbers are more than likely going to be rare. So there may be teams that are hesitant to draft a team if they only make it up 50-75% of their matches. This would leave potential big points for the later alliances.
