My thoughts EXACTLY!!! if you can do it well and consistently, then why bother with the bump, and make sure before the match, if you send a team across, MAKE SURE they can do it without failing... I feel the perfomance boos gained by not adapting for the bump allows for a better performing (and better scoring) robot.
