It doesn't matter whether team A has 10 points, team B has 20 points, and team C has 30 points or if team A has 50 points, team B has 60 points, and team C has 70 points. The result is exactly the same. C wins no matter what.

Just because everyone has 40 more points does not mean everyone benefits.
Awe, but here is the flaw in your argument, not all the teams will do it, it's risk and reward.

I see, sorry, I haven't gone over that part of the rules. My bad.
