Putting it over the top of the pole would relieve some teams of the finesse or claw design required to release a tube and getting it to stay in place.

All of this, of course, assumes that you can reach high enough in the first place.
But if you weaken your claw design, then tele-op won't be successful if it's only for autonomus.
