Bonesaw (hacksaw event) is payload race and Red doesn't even have a cart. Does Valve not test these maps at all?

After wutville I’m surprised that’s even a necessary question

the one time i played bonesaw someone on blue was stuck in the normal map during the final race with the rest of his team dead in the race, and since red isn't allowed to win he had to take one for the server and disconnect to make the server recognize the stalemate and free us
