That wasn't entirely true. It happened most of the time, but in the Einstein division last year, the top two seeds were goal grabbers (201 and 311, I believe). It's all about consistency. If you score less points each round, but you continually acheive the same score, you'll do better than someone who gets 200 points one round and 5 the next.
Thing is they get 200 pts ALL THE TIME while you get 50 pts all the time. My experience at nats last year was "110 point matches aren't enough" my team was striving for 120 - 130 point matches, because that's what it took to stay on top. No one got that by crushing the opposition.

This game was designed to prevent what has apparently turned into the default strategy... my opinion is being on top is worth too many points.
