Yes, this seemed like the "missing" conclusion to me too.

At some point of imballance BOTH teams are better off scoring on each other.

Of course, at that point, the whole "This 1020 game is easier for the crowd to understand." concept goes out the door.... Will it make sense to anyone not on this forum that the red is now scoring for blue and that blue is now scoring for red?

It will be interesting if the term "Tipping Point" starte getting applied to matches.....

Annoucer..... "Looks like we've hit the tipping point. Teams are starting to score in each other's goals."

You read it here first
