Just to show you the difference it would make, here’s a small example from the last Olympic volleyball semifinals game Italy vs USA. In the attached image the “Points” are similar to the current WvW scoring system. Each team scores some points and then add them to the total to see who’s the winner. The “Sets” are similar to the skirmishes – no matter how many more points you got in the set (2 hour window) respect to your rival, you still get the same amount of points to the total score.
Italy lost the second set 9 to 25, as if USA were night capping when the italians were asleep. That advantage would have allowed the USA to win based on total points scored 112 to 105, but the USA only won 2 sets and Italy won 3. So despite the night capping set 2 Italy still won.
Obviously, in this example the USA only night capped for one set out of five, but still, it shows that winning more sets gives you the final victory, not simply accumulating more points.
My five cents.
