plus the gain from getting the 8.5->9.0 points isn't nearly as much as the theoretical loss from wonging a +3.0 team.

That's also going to happen a lot less frequently because it requires more steam to move onto or off of the bigger numbers than to move onto smaller numbers. 8.5 moving to 9.0 is disastrous for a teaser. Moving to 8.0 isn't that big of a deal (since the two is worth little). Same goes with 1.5.
I'm not trying to open the "trying to predict line movements in Wongs" argument again (it seems that people need to get into a pissing contest over anything, and since Wonging as a system lacks enough controversy, people will exaggerate fights over it). My point is if you're going to harass a guy for doing something a little early, don't do it when there's value in doing it early, on point values where line volatility in the last 12 hours can hurt more than help.
