No. You'd rather have the weak guy eliminated. Just because a guy is weak doesn't mean you want him around. For example, may his weakness is he calls too much, while the strong guy is tight. You'd rather have the "strong" guy around than the weak guy, especially if the strong guy doesn't adjust enough short-handed.

This is just one example, but the point is you can't know enough about the players characteristics to justify throwing equity away.
