A robot that climbs reliably for 30 points every match is not a bad alliance partner at all; can you pre-load colored discs, and dump them in the hopper at the top of the pyramid at the end of the climb?
This strategy may not make you the #1 seed, but will outscore lots of other teams that fail in/don't have autonomous, can only do a ten point climb, and end up only scoring five or six three-point discs in tele-op. And it could do so reliably, every single match.
This may outperform a robot that tries to do everything, and ends up doing nothing well.
