I don't think it will hurt us at all, on the opposite. Hopefully, this new reward will get a few more tanks and healers to queue, making our queue times shorter. The fact, that they get an additional reward doesn't hurt you at all. If this "bribe" doesn't work, you're no worse off than now. At worst, it will mean that a few more asshats try to queue as tanks/healers that aren't (but they already do that for short queues, so I doubt it will be significantly more). Just kick those as soon as you notice it, they won't get the reward and since your group has already formed you will be returned to the *front* of the queue.
