Certainly. However, when following the strategy of optimize to be the very best second pick, you should be aware of what might happen should you succeed. It doesn't mean you shouldn't specialize, but you may end up shooting yourself in the foot.
Interestingly, that changes a bit this year. This year, you don't have to outscore the 1st alliance as the 8th seed to advance. I get the feeling that this will give a boost to the lower alliances.
