Scoring serves one main purpose -- requiring you to run the challenge multiple times to finish a card. Ignoring that grindy aspect of it... Scoring makes play within your fireteam more competitive.
Loot distribution doesn't have any correlation to score, other than completing your card.
This is really no different than damage at the kill screen of a raid encounter. It's bragging rights. Similar to kill count and k/d ratios. Same difference. It's a metric to measure yourself against your teammates.
