That play mode that over builds this atea is pvp. But the reason most “overbuild” is to slow down offline raiding or zerg raids (20v3 or 4). Putting up 20 layers at least makes the raiders use more bombs. So if they somehow made offlining the worse way to raid (right now it is the meta) then over building on pvp has some merit as a defense.

This is disregarding hacking of course, a whole other can of worms.
