When one punt can completely tank all the previous decisions you made, it is a much different game.
Yes, but this is why a lot of recs might not join in the first place. They have joined, got fatigued, punted, and now next time they might be reluctant to join again. Especially if it's a live multi-day event, you would get more entries this way. That is unless the format is not as appealing.

Obviously a similar format has been invented before. I think it should be revisited for live multi-day tournaments (I'm only aware of it being tried online), whereas otherwise it's kind of unnecessarily complicated. A cash-tourney online is pointless because I can just bring my laptop into the delivery room and kill two birds with one stone.
