The idea of M&M&Frog Crimes battling Wax while Grind and Rein have a one-on-one is pretty entertaining. It'd even make for a decent way to take this adventure, if we're talking in meta terms.
But I think there's a lot of problems. Convincing M&M might be possible with some pragmatism, but we don't even have a clue how Wax will be in a fight against us, let alone if Grind and Rein would actually ignore the triple alliance.
I mean, sure, they're not warped out of existence (are we????) if they lose, but they're not in here to lose, either. According to Wax, them working out their problems is part of the intent of this game. In that case, Wax might actually like quarantining them to their own devices, but... that'd require dropping at least part of this hypothetical plan to him, likely infuriating him further.
We have so many ideas. We have basically no metric as to which of them will work, except our own judgement. This plan doesn't sound terrible-- it might even work positively. But it seems like equal chance it's actually on par with making The Bad Knife due to our own misunderstandings about the game.
(Plus won't Wax just ally with Grind or Rein automatically and end up making it a 1v2v3? With Wax as authority, Grind and Rein might even just ignore each other for long enough to wipe us out in a 3v3, newbies against experienced players.)
((Also Jacquerel's peaceful plan is more appealing to me from a story and morals perspective. It's just a Frog Crimes-esque thing.))
