Maybe you think that with team A you have a 50% chance of getting 60 and a 50% chance of getting less than 55, whereas with team B you have a 95% chance of getting 55. If you know you need 58 to win then you have to go with A to have a shot, but if you only need 55 to win why take the risk?
OK - but if the scores were hidden like OP wants, you'd have to run A regardless because you don't know that you need 58. So how is that any different then just trying to maximize your score? Whenever GA goes live I just attack. My opponent always seems to wait til the last minute. To me it's immaterial - I'm going to do my best to clear his defenses with what I have, and pray my defense holds. I don't need to know his moves first. It's not like I can adjust my defenses once they're set.
In that case it’s a matter of strategic decision and how risk averse you are. But it’s not a matter of an information dichotomy. Right now the person who attacks first has less information to inform his decision making than the person who attacks second. That’s what people who want the scores hidden find unfair.
