Observation: This is likely their practice bot, and not the one that is sitting in a bag right now. The last few years, 1114's bots have had substantially more powdercoat than this.
I wouldn't necessarily say they have a floor pickup. Who knows the value of floor pickup better than someone who's making due without it?
Besides, maybe they were encouraging other teams to make a floor pickup (maybe at the cost of climbing past a quick 10) so they have more ideal alliance partners.

I don't think the picture says too much about 1114's robot at this point, rather than it shoots Frisbees, has pneumatics, drives, and climbs.
