Curie is 3rd with the strongest upper end, which may contributed most to its performance on Einstein.
Considering that elims are played almost exclusively by the top 24 teams in each division, having a better top 25% of teams in your division seems to matter much more than how strong your division is below the 24th spot. Curie clearly has the advantage when it comes to comparing the teams in each division that will likely make elims.
