Answer:

They would be further from the correct answer. It would make it harder for them to determine which one who has the highest score.

Explanation:

Team 1 got 4,3 points and Team 2 got 4,2. Then it is evident that Team 1 won. But we get rid of the decimals, they would both get 4 points instead. Who actually won then?
