Consider a simplified two runners, one scorer strategy. Scorer stays in or near the protected zone. Runners get tubes. Do you defend the runners? Which one? Both?
You can't stop the scoring - the scorer is protected.
You can't stop the running - it's a 2 on 1.
What do you do?
This isn't defense's greatest game.

I agree - and the scorer can venture out to pick up a thrown tube, etc., if their supply runs low making it a 3 on 1 battle. Not to mention the fact that the defender hasn't scored a single tube or fed one to his scorer the whole time.
If there is a defender present, I think an elevator based lift has an advantage over a pivoting arm, since they have an easier time maneuvering and scoring entirely within the protected zone.
