To me, all of the other options are bad for IRI. It may have worked fine for a competition season where 90% of the robots were OK or bad, but at a competition that will have the top 2ish% robots participating, what will the co-op bridge achieve? It will just be another strategic option for teams to use to manipulate rankings.

This or number 3. I hate when I am waiting on a bridge for a good 40-50 seconds only to have the opposing robot not attempt to balance or attempt and fail at the coop bridge.
Basically I don't want team's rankings hurt just because of the opposing robots inability to balance.
