Alliance Selection System

I've seen a few gripes about the serpentine draft system lately. My heavily truncated summary of this debate is as follows:

1-8, 1-8: Rewards the best teams more often
1-8, 8-1: Makes elimination rounds more interesting

So I have a pointed question for the 1-8, 1-8 proponents. Would you support a draft system that went 1,1,2,2,3,3... ? It is the logical extension of the arguments favoring 1-8, 1-8. The top captain gets a big advantage. If Alliance 1 wins, then the first and second picks of the draft both qualify for the Championship.

Some old (closed) threads about serpentine draft:
