I'd even go one step further. With the coopertition bridge, long bots have an advantage in the quals. Why? Because they are easier to drive and balance (on a 2 robot balance).

In the elims, wide bots have an advantage because they can more easily triple balance.

Therefore, the best teams for the elims are typically not in control of their alliances. It makes for a very strange game.
