Perhaps an approximation of the time is needed.

I think driver-skill is plausible somewhat since it should be obvious if a robot has clumsy movements compared to fantastic ability to play defense or move across the field.

I am disputing mainly with your 2 examples of throwing distance and engagement time with tower.
