A single data point does not make represent statistical proof. One might argue that Simbotics does not have ground pickup, and their numerical performance far exceeds that of 254.

It all depends on what is right for your team, and your strategy.

As I said before - the difference between a good ground pickup and a fast wall drop is amazingly small. The major difference is that bots with no ground pickup suffer in auton.
