I'm not a fan of rules that encourage teams to score fewer points, as it stands now this rules does that in certain situations.
I would almost assume that the GDC glossed over the rule as well, because if they're intentionally, passively incentivizing teams not going for the best possible score every time they go on the field (as is the case in the qualifications) then that's some 10/10 game design right there.
