Great work on the robot!

Everyone keeps bringing up intense defense on the climb and dumpers and I don't know why. With a climber and dumper you have to make exactly one trip across the field, where most shooters will be making several trips.
Why would the shooters also not have to deal with this intense defense? Is it because of the big points a good climber and dumper can make? I see full court shooters being able to put up similar big points but little discussion of defense in those threads.
If the defense is going to be that intense on us climby/dumpy bots, then we can put up 30 uncontested points and not even move at all. I know that is our plan if we draw an all defense bot opposing alliance during regionals. How many shooters can put up 30 points without interference?
I just find this topic fascinating and it might be worthy of a topic of its own, but I see it in every climby/dumpy bot thread.
