Adam,
thanks for saying this.
Its what many mentors who are drive coaches feel who have done it for a long time.

Teams need to be honest about their capabilities. Be realistic. The frustration lies when people claim they can do things and absolutely cannot.

I would think that every alliance in every match wants to maximize their capabilities. Its starts by telling the truth.
The data doesnt lie.
