Ask that question you just asked back to yourself and question how it reflects these ideals. What do you think your grandmother would say, as Woodie tends to say. What if you were in 1114's shoes and your partner was working against with complete intention? How would you feel?

That's just my two cents. Ask yourself first before asking the community because very often on these forums, moral dilemmas are posted as strategy. What does Gracious Professionalism mean to you? Give it meaning in your life.

I was not trying to promote the strategy, and I agree with you that it should never be used. I only wanted to point out that, if a team ever did find itself in this situation, it might have an incentive to basically play against its alliance members.
