i believe that save scumming for rank is only acceptable if the said person wants more money per battle and they admit to save scumming

That doesn't make any sense. You'd make more money just playing more games after you lose. All save scumming will do for your money is lose you the 0-500 you earned from the lost match. So save scumming for money would cost you more time and net you less money than simply letting loses happen and continue playing.

Once you reach S+ and go back to only playing Squads, you'll get an extra 500 per win forever after.

what i meant was using save scumming to get to s+ so you can get money in squads without losing rank

Oh my mistake.

I considered save scumming for that exact reason before, but then I realized that it would probably earn me less money anyway since I'd be facing harder opponents which is bound to lower my win rate. I feel like it would be more beneficial to have more wins at 5000 then less at 6000.

I could definitely understand scumming to S rank so someone could play squad battles in peace.
