The scoring rewards offense. +6/-6 matters if you are going for Kyber and a top finish. The best strategy is for maximum points on offense. If I hit an auto D and I can’t clear two sections, my score is 2700 and not 3100 - that matters.
You’re right, the system rewards offense; probably because it’s more fun this way. What players can do is embrace this, play offensively and clear anyway when opponent auto deploy.
As DarjeloSalas explained it, one of the main issue with your idea is giving even more points to players who are lucky enough to face players who dont play because reasons. It may be the soccer fan talking, but I’ll add that a rule that rewards defense usually makes the game less fun ;)
