Did not do the math on the posts and don't claim to be able to read minds ... You may well be correct.
Being among those who chose not to go for climbing, I will admit that I did not consider the potential of reducing the level 1 bonus while increasing the level 2 and 3 bonus when we decide on our strategy and design criteria. I doubt that it would have changed our decision.
It would certainly change our strategy for match play; that is if we are fortunate enough to qualify for Championships.
Finally, I believe that the GDC recognized how much easier it would be to achieve a level 1 climb versus the other two. I think that the bonus for autonomous scoring and climbing balance well. I think this game was designed to force teams to make choices and find ways to build a robust alliance to accomplish all of the game challenges ... I really like it.
Hope they don't feel the need to tweak it any more.
