I personally don't mind what they did with the assists, but for theoretical purposes…
They could have awarded qualification points for the alliance with the most assists, much like Coopertition points for balancing the center bridge in 2012, this would encourage passing, but not make the scoring as confusing for the audience. Obviously, there would be teams that couldn't pass that benefited from an elite alliance partner, but in the end, the teams that do the passing would have the most coopertition points.
