Look at the last few games where both alliances put up 0 points. Most of them were to worried about shooting fast or shifting to be faster when they can't even score 1 ball/tube. 2010 is a perfect example, you could have pushed 3 balls in and hung and won over 70% of your games.

I definitely agree that shifters are overated. They only help teams that are already preforming well(teams that spend time at the end of the build season tuning and practicing with their robot). However, I think that there is little reason to not use shifters this year. Companies like Vex and WCP have made them super easy(and cheap) to integrate into whatever drive you choose to run.
