I disagree, while it is true that your own score is the most important, you still want the opposition to score a few points as possible. The 40 points you block could be the difference between them having more QA than you when eliminations comes around.

While its true that blocking itself seems like a waste of weight, You still have the last 20 seconds of the match to pick up the trash on the ground and deposit it into the landfill.
