Are the assessors incentivised to award zero points?

Could it be that the assessors are incentivised to score low? Does anyone know?

How long does PIP take after receving letter saying 'we have recieved all information for decision'.
It has been since early September since my PIP claim was made and around late October when we had a phone assessment.
