The question would be what they're training us for. Getting better at challenges? Teaching us the general rules we're working under? Why teamwork, anyway? If only some of our worlds are supposedly going to make it, that seems like an incentive to prioritize your success over everyone else's.
Unless the idea is to get us to form consistent groups and rate us as teams. The best ones help each other win, and the losers drag each other down. Which still raises the question of 'why' in a different way, but I'll admit, I still don't know what the fuck any of this has to do with how much our worlds 'deserve' to be saved. Sorry you didn't make the cut, Earth Theta - the unknowable alien picked a rep for you who sucks at being a team player, so now you all have to die.
