If both teams are somewhat equal in scoring capability, allowing each team two of the bins is the same as not allowing any team any of the bins result wise to my understanding.

That would be something. You are on einstein, and your only role is to not let go of the bins you grab in autonomous.
The problem is that logic only works in the finals of a divison, regional/district, or Einstein. If you are playing 2v2, you are actually playing 2v2v3v3v3v3v3v3 since you need the top half highest average score to advance. Giving containers up first will not only make the team your playing against stronger but also reduce your own average depending on how much time is left and how many stacks can be made by the other 2 on your alliance.
