It's cute but doesn't make any difference. Add 4 to the score for every question and you get 9 or 0. The factor of 9 makes no difference so call it 1 or 0. Now your score is just the number of questions you got right, but the ranking is exactly the same as the original scoring system.

You will never know the shame of receiving a negative score. It's part of the competition whether it was designed that way or not, it is exactly what teenage boys have turned it into. The concept of a negative score is a pretty good motivator.
