I agree with the posts that this would just give more to jerks who game the system. Although what if there was just equal distribution. You could form coalitions for more resources or you could just use the small amount for exploratory research. Get 10 people together for a large grant 100 for a mega grant. This collaboration is required regardless if you want larger grants.
I would like to see a small pool of grant money go out like this. Or maybe the lower scored but not grant winning get 1/10th allocation with no requirements to do a small scale study or act as a bridge.
Imagine how amazing technology could be if we swapped the war budget with the health and science budgets.
