That is ridiculous. You would put yourself at a competitive disadvantage and lose more often. You follow the rules in place and lobby to have them changed.

Here is another. The Mavericks owner was against the Thunder being allowed to move from Seattle. Should he have forfeited all games against them to prove his point? I'm sure the team's fans would have loved that in the Western Conference finals a few years ago.
