Should wars end in draw each ally gets 25k bonus points

And you know alliances would game the system and just tie each other on purpose as a result. Gotta win if you want the big points.
Instead of 25K each, it'd be closer to 10-15k each.
Losing < Drawing < Winning - that's just logic, ask any sports player they'd rather draw than lose, more points, more prizes whatever.
But in MCOC, the points for
Losing = Drawing < winning
that to me doesnt make sense, but of course, I respect your opinion in the matter. I think it's subjective whether you think drawing deserves more points
But coming from a former chess fanatic, when it comes to 1v1's, it's a loss if it's not a win imo. I've played in tournaments and of course if I make it far then draw I'm happy. But if there's no tournament and I'm just playing 1 person, I walk away from a stalemate with the same feeling I get when I lose.
Definitely subjective, just my take.
If winning gave more points wouldn't both alliances try to win? Or is it just in the interest of saving items. What I think of when I consider the collusion is that two alliances would agree to get the same attack bonus, diversity or whatever to force a draw. But then another alliance who isn't colluding would beat a different alliance, and they'd get more points, leaving the two colluding alliances behind.
I'm genuinely curious here, not just disagreeing for the hell of it
Ties happen, but if doing 3 Bgs, it's not likely that it's going to be an even war with every single matchup. People take the risk of not boosting or healing, etc.
A tie is no more guaranteed than a win or a loss (without colussion). When it happens, it happens and all you can do is try your best which is what everyone else who wants into win is trying to do too.
Otherwise you’re saying that a team (in sports) could go 1 Win and 15 Losses (as example Football season, or even the “other” football), and they would have a better season record than a team that happened to Tie every single game (0 Wins, 0 Losses, 16 Ties).
I just don’t think 1 - 15 - 0 is better than 0 - 0 - 16.
