Re: Rule 8.4.1
Because no team gets to the first seed by luck or the associated machinations of 16 teams.

You've gotta be a darn good robot to take advantage of all the opportunities afforded to you by the help (or hurt) of 16 other alliance partners.

Besides, you forget that teams can pick from within the top 8. So you're grabbing a lot lower of a pick than you might otherwise imagine.
