Or an MTT eliminator, where we automatically lose 10% of the remaining field every hour ;D

The 9 players with the lowest chips every break, would be easy enough to put in to practice. Points being awarded depending on which break you reached, with a deep stacked final table with lots of points available at the end

Would you declare a winner at half-time in a football match just because they were 1-0 up?
An MTT is about the long-haul, playing short-stack ninja poker as necessary and using whatever skills one has to triumph TO THE END.
If, as seems to be the majority view, the MTT is receiving too much weight in the overall result then some points tweakage is desirable, if not, in fact, necessary.

... The best team should be the world champions.

Do you mean like the football World Cup is always won by the best team? (or rugby, cricket, ....)
The only sure way to find out the best is a long and boring league structure, I think it might be better to try and veer even more towards a cup idea. Perhaps an opportunity for some real creativity in the way it"s set up.
For example in the stt"s having the first player to (more than) double there starting stack qualifying towards a Champions STT. As soon as this happens there chips are removed from play the remainder play it out with the winner of this sit n go being given a runners up spot to the same Champions STT. This would have a significant number of points available to those who "cashed" (top half maybe), whilst the remainder of the STT losers would play an MTT with points available to the final table.
It"s difficult to simulate what kind of result that would give, but it"s really just an idea to say that fiddling around with the structure of the team tournaments doesn"t just have to mean looking at the points allocations (for example).

I guess Scotland would still win ;)
