That isn't going to happen.
Even if you deflate the scores enough to get a tie isn't the next determining factor auto, so then do we need an auto agreement too? How will this even effect the final alliance, you all got to the end with ranking points now that you can't rely on the crutch you used to make it to the end you now still have to outplay the other side.
All you have done is create extra work.
My opinion is that, unless you are directly competing with those teams for the top seed for playoffs, you won't do this. In which case, you would also be depriving yourself of the possible breach points.
