I don't see how this is completely inaccurate in life. If you look at societies, the tendency is for a few to take all the control they can and for a majority to submit to what the leaders decide.

I'm not really sure I'd call this a solution to the problem if you define the problem as how can both do the best but if you define the problem as racking up the highest score, I don't see a problem.

To me, what you are really seeing here is artificial intelligence simulating part of life.

I don't even see the point of the research. Putting the issue of cheating aside, surely it should come as no surprise that if one agent sacrifices itself to help a second, then that second one is likely to be in a better position than any third agent that has received no such consideration.
