But if WLT is primary, and points scored is a tie breaker (even if it is the first), this wouldn't appeal to the dominant alliance at all; they would still do better by winning a low-scoring match than losing a high-scoring one. On the other hand, if the points are primary and WLT is secondary, I'd rather play offense and "lose" 150-100 than play defense and "win" 40-30.
