I believe that is their plan. In the short term it can be seen as a cynical approach to reform since the Liberals would be the clear beneficiaries, being most people's first or second choice. But it's hard to argue with the idea of forcing parties to appeal to a wide group of voters rather than micro targeting base + 10% like the Conservatives have been doing.
