Agreed. As the number of teams/alliances in the competition decreases the value of the cans on the step increases exponentially, since you are effectively taking away possible points from the opponent. Having a method to take the cans from the middle is an exceptionally valuable asset and something that, even if the team isn't a captain, will almost assuredly get them picked.
