Sure, if that rule isn't there and every pot has a high and a low, then a low draw is a much stronger hand (since you can hit the low and still have a shot at a straight or flush to punk the high hand. Clearly in a high low split situation, you want either hands that can scoop both or a nut hand one way or the other with lots of players in the hand until the end. So your advice in that situation IS sound, you wouldn't want to knock players out. In the casino version, since high hands do scoop a fair number of pots, it's a situation where you can try to knock out low draws, thus increasing the chance of a scoop (which is usually more profitable than a played out hand that ends up being split).
