It certainly served to make the elims interesting and hard to predict. I heard predictions from different people of at least 5 of the alliances advancing to the finals.
From Jeff Waegelin and my predictions (plus lame excuses why they didn't pan out):
1. 66 217 910 beats 8. 291 862 573
2. 47 494 1023 barely beats 7. 67 326 503*penalties
3. 27 469 1646 beats 6. 65 68 245
5. 33 107 201 beats 4. 1718 70 451

5. 33 107 201 barely beats 1. 66 217 910*tech difficulties
3. 27 469 1646 barely beats winner of 2 vs. 7*penalties

Winner of 1 vs. 5 beats Winner of 2 vs 3*tech difficulties

I still insist that if Alliance 7 hadn't screwed everything up, then the predictions would've held
