I agree that getting to the TOP of the scoreboard is largely impossible without actually helping your team, but there's a large "grey area" below the top that most players I'm talking about fall into.
In a relatively low scoring game (IE: not a lot of back and forth with objectives), you'll see top scores around, say, 40-60. But that doesn't mean you won't also see scores of around 20-30 by people who really did squatola for the team. Maybe they got into a cap zone once, and then killed 10-20 enemies, dying themselves some 10-20 times. That's still no sign of skill to me.
I'd rather just judge a player by his behavior that I observe, instead of looking at a numerical representation of it. I know I don't judge myself based on score because there's plenty of teamwork that is necessary to win which isn't rewarded. Sometimes I'm top scorer, sometimes I'm not. But I like to think I'm ALWAYS a team player.
