It's not that it can't, but people always get very invested in conquest pushes. If you're in Light and were there for VaLight, you probably know what I mean! Imagine if Nature had twisted the board again on the last minute, like they were all week. After a conquest push, people do feel exhausted and have their vaults drained, so when their flight doesn't win, most of them don't really think "oh, but it was so fun!!", they think "next time we'll do better and prepare more thoroughly! JUST WAIT FOR US IN A REMATCH". In the end, nobody loves slaving away in the Coli!
Ice and Plague are flights known to prepare well and be at the top of their game, going unprepared against them is a huge risk of loss. Then, the consequent burnout/vault emptying/loss of morale might take a while to recover from.
It can be if we're not going for dominance against Plague or Ice. Going for dominance against a powerhouse with no preparation and limited personal funds is basically going for second place. Which is fine, if you are intending to go for second place. It's not fine if you are going all out and depleting the Dom vault to do so. At least in my opinion.
