We also want a below 30 inch robot, and a low slingshot would be quite unreliable, and at that angle, fitting four disks at the same time in the high goal would be difficult, if even possible.
We are pretty much locked in on wanting the side by side shooter at the moment. We have until September to start building, so there are definitely going to be some improvements or changes to the design. We're betting that the robot would have to be quite wide to accommodate the diameter of two shooter wheels, two disks, and the thickness of our metal stock all in a row across the width of the bot.

I can see it now a 1503 style shooter mounted to a four bar linkage with a pickup at the end
