I agree with your observation absolutely, and it is generally why open wheelers had better races than tintops, however this bit of Morris' post does have a certain logic.
“If a driver knows there is a bloke behind him who is more than likely going to give him a tap he might leave the door open just that little bit more and then you have another pass, not necessarily a crash.” Paul Morris.
May prevent endless blocking?
