I've always been skeptical of this "Al got closer to the Truth because it took more from him" idea. Namely because it's clearly not true. Al doesn't know any more than Ed about alchemy, and wasn't even able to transmute without a circle until the death of the snake chimera chick.
And there are events later in the manga that suggest that any rules go right out the window whenever Truth is involved, that I will not get into for spoiler reasons.
