I don't believe FIRST supports the idea of killing your own score just to hurt another team. Am I the only one who thinks this?

Joe J. brought up this strategy in
another thread. (look towards the bottom of the page).
If you're out for a dominating victory, what do you care how many points your opponents score? If, on the other hand, you're out for a high QP victory, you need to be prepared and willing to score points for your opponent.
The point of the strategy is not to spite you, it's to force you to take action which would give them a chance.
