No team is going to intentionally hang a tube for zero points, and I've seen painful instances where a team was penalized because their robot released a tube but was still "supporting" it at the end of the autonomous period. As soon as they backed away, they incurred a penalty. It hurts enough to not score the ubertube; there's no need to rub salt in the wound.

they are going to allow the ubertube to function as a doubler, but not the points you would get from autonomous (i.e. the 6 points if it were on the top row) and there wouldn't be a penalty
