If the 900/5012 can battle were to occur, it would leave us and 900 tangled up with all 4 cans at the center of the field, with the possibility of leaving a mess in both landfills. This would have made it difficult for 1114(and 118) to play their games effectively. We would have likely played 1671 in place of 118 as they were more proficient at the feeder station.
In that scenario, wouldn't it make the most sense for 1678 to be sitting on the sidelines? With only 3 cans per alliance, getting the maximum value from each can would be incredibly important. Or are you assuming that 1671 is successful at building 3 42-point stacks, and that 1678 can outscore 118 from the feeder station in raw totes?
