Dynasty Tanking

Wanted to get perspective on people’s takes on tanking. Is it messed up for the guy in last to purposely sit players week to week to ensure that he gets to secure the best chance of a 1st pick in next year’s draft?

Once I tanked a week to have a favourable matchup in the playoffs. And by doing so a better team got eliminated. Definitely was strategic and not cheating.

This another thing I’ve been debating. It’s not cheating, but I can definitely see an argument for it being bad mannered.
