team standings as posted by usfirst.org

I only started looking at the team standings as part of the discussion about the effect of TU16 if it were to be applied to week 1 results. There is a column on the team standings page labeled "coopertition bonus." It appears to be a cumulative total of the teams' coopertition bonus points for all their matches. My reading of rule <9.3.8> is that only the highest of each team's CB points is retained as a possible tie-breaker for rule <9.3.9>. So when I see a CB score of 52 in the AZR team standings, for instance, I'm amazed that such a score is possible. Further, since each team on the alliance gets the same CB for a match, I would expect there to be two other 52s in the table. I take the absence of those other two to mean that the numbers in that column are sums.

Can someone take a moment to check my logic about this? It doesn't seem common to be using this tie-breaker, but I wonder if it is being tracked properly.
