Introducing my own opinion right here: I would absolutely mash the full remaining FCs I'm missing to complete the FC bar. It's one secondary completion metric available on the site, and as a pretty high level player I find myself lacking realistic achievements (meaningless or not) to go for. Plus I believe that it's not entirely trivial (for lower divisions) to complete given the top end charts, even with mashing.

That being said, "encourages mashing" is a big statement, which I would tend to disagree with too. It would only encourage it for that given FC metric, which is well known to be an optional thing in FFR (Skill rating/AAA equiv being the main focus for ranked performance).
