But then they could just plop down right next to anyone in the first half and decide to kill them. This advantage would allow the bottom half to basically take any place that they want early game, as long as they are versing a person of the first half for the same spot.

If you plop down next to me with a 3, and I have a 2, but I go first... Then I can move to an empty space and get 3 at turns end. Hence I have 2 spaces with a 3 and 1 in each respectively. You have one space with one 3. I still have the advantage having gone first. At least this way, you have a fair opportunity to attack my 3, where as before, you did not, because you would have had a 2 against my three. Plus as it stands, having gone first, I got to pick the best location. So I do not see how this is any bigger advantage... but it surely helps to level the playing field a bit.
In this copy from another thread, it shows you that it makes sense. I probably should have taken more into consideration before blabbing my thoughts.
