Another interesting thing is that a team that constantly gets in the way of it's alliance parters would have a lower OPR then one that scores the same number of points but allows it's alliance partners to live to their full potential.
A team can have a great scoring record and have few penalties but can still have their rating ruined by being on alliances that have scored penalties.

If you can't factor out alliance penalties then there is way too much "luck of the draw" possible in this chart.
