Well, you can know *my* score, since I'm not displaced in score, but I see what you're concerned about.

But I still maintain the same argument.  Either the game is completely broken and what anyone's score is doesn't matter, or precedent dictates the game isn't broken and the runaway acceleration stuff didn't happen.  I favor the latter, because to allow the runaway acceleration is to allow the game to be broken.
