Actually, I think gerrymandering aims to have the result be more like 7-2 consistently, where 7 is the party with less actual representation. Gerrymandering aims to put all of the opponent's voters in the smallest number of districts possible, while spreading out your own base.

The result is that the opponent wins fewer districts with over 90% of the vote where you win more districts with 55% or 60% of the vote.
