I think the argument is that the only teams who see something as being at stake (the only ones you're incentivizing) are those in the high-preforming cohort that's already most likely to be helping the community. Teams in other situations will continue (ostensibly) to benefit more from directing their efforts elsewhere, vis-a-vis the the precieved step improvement in performance that results from helping other teams.

I don't know that I agree with the attempted ubiquity of the generalization, but I do agree that the cohort whose behavior might be affected by this incentive is not over-large.
