Do we really want to score 3-0 wins differently from 3-2 wins?, For nerds only.

Do we really want to score 3-0 wins differently from 3-2 wins?

No, we don't.

But if we are forced to do it, I would give a greater score to 3-2 wins.
Sport /or spor/ is a play of competition and fight.
There is no competition and fight in 3-0.

Aside of win sport is a play of joy.
When I play 3-2 or 2-3 I feel good and happy no metter do I win or lose.
When I play 3-0 I don't feel joy no metter do I lose or win.

If you further extend this line of thinking, then we should assign more points to 'beautiful' matches and penalize 'ugly' ones, that is ones with nets, edges, plenty of mistakes, and play styles we dislike. To be more like figure skating... :rolleyes:
