One thing to keep in mind when assessing results from this format is that you might eventually be determining which nations can do best with limited design points, instead of which nations are "best" overall. The effect probably wouldn't be too pronounced, but there are certainly nations that are less affected by pretender/scale choices than others.

So, while for "teh ubar" nations, you may get a hard bidding limit at a dual bless barrier (for example) you might have other "less powerful" nations that get bid up extra high because they just don't "need" the points as much, and people are more willing to bid them up rather than accept a single-bless hellheim or whatnot.

Other than that, I think it's a wonderful idea, and I'd be fascinated to see what kind of stats would come out of it. Even if you never get enough games in the system to provide statistically significant data, it'd be an interesting exercise.

I don't think the expereinced players are interested, so I'm not going to be running this anytime soon.
