So even at perfect performance there's no reason, unless the XP somehow ends up being so much higher to justify losing 135k (rolling wow would be better than going for perfect every time here). Something a bit interesting is that for every turn you're off from the count and for every pokemon that fainted you lose a piece of the final prize.
