Autonomous is the main reason to have a floor loader. Human load only robots will still be great this year, probably better than 2011.

There's one major problem I see with that, mostly time. From what I can see of most teams' designs, they'd have to back up after picking up a disc to let the feeder drop another one for them. Having to back up and then line back up for each disc will take far too long. It's possible to avoid this, but I think most teams will simply have a dedicated loading device.
