If I remember this correctly, Scott was intentionally mislead by Derek to believe that killing the Alpha would cure him. Given the time, Scott could've only gotten this info from Derek or Deaton, both of whom are reliable sources. If this is not the case, then what was the point of having Scott say it all?

I will admit that we've yet to see anything that proves Scott statement of being true. However, werewolves adding power to a pack was Derek's main goal for just about all of S2 in preparation for the Alpha pack. That seems like a lot of work for a statement that's not to be taken literal.
