Was being facetious. Of course I knew that, as has been teased around these forums over the last few days. The amount of people who write sensationalist claims about not needing any floor pickup is ridiculous. Even a single-disc floor loader is very valuable in autonomous since it can get a total of 5 autonomous discs.
