In other words, if you planned on being able to talk to each other with ease during this balancing period, think again. One team will have to be shouted to over whatever other din fills the competition area, quite a lot, if I'm familiar with FRC regionals.

Not really. The teams can still coordinate in the pits before the match to settle how it will work out. Alliances already commonly meet before each match, having "opponents" do the same isn't a huge leap.
