I wanted match scores that could be used to calculate reasonable rankings. Since CCWM is related to winning margin and not match scores, it wouldn't have been as useful.

If someone has data that shows that CCWM predictions are more accurate, I might consider doing it for next year.

A slightly better way to get match scores would have been to add the alliance's OPRs and subtract their opponents DPRs, but that's a lot more work.
