I'd argue that approach is much healthier for a team than thinking about raw PP value; after all, those locked cards represent some amount of PP for the utility they present to your team and to other collections. When you approach it that way, those collections far outnumber those where you spend less PP on the parts than the reward.
Gotcha. You are right that for a team like OP in gold/diamond that's reasonable, though if you are going to a top perfect level team eventually even those players won't make the cut (although I did lock in Dahlen as my SS/3B sub)
