Yeah it's not false per se. At least hopefully not. It's my The Onion/Daily Show news spoof kinda a way to get this idea out there.
I think a team slayer optimatch would be terrible. All the traffick would go there and the strategy and brilliance that Bungie painfully crafted into their multi-player maps would be lost forever. Just 10s of thousands of idiots camping and memorizing spawn points.
With a mulit-team playlist you could have alot more team slayer, perhaps even 1/3 of the games, and the maps would still be utilized because camping and weapon superiority would be minimized, alomst negated, by fact that so many teams are flying around the map. Your team camps, 1 of the other 7 teams will show up and wreck you. And the remaining juggernaut, king of the hill, team ball game types would keep the more dynamic strategies aspects alive and well.
As it is so many of the maps, especially the big team maps, are underutilized because everyone is in such a crazy rush to get to the objective point or are just plain out of the way. Mulit team slayer, odd ball, jugernaut, crazy king would encourage people to spread out and explore the map, because no matter how great the spot, 2 people can't hold it against 14.
Thus movement, strategy, tons of kills and a bad ass Halo 2 experience.
