It was still be extremely benifical for both alliances to attempt it (as autonomous could be the first tie-breaker) and easy enough that any robot that can drive can do it (maybe veteran teams would work with their rookie partners to program their autonomous modes so the veterans could do more elaborate auto modes like the 7 disc autonomous). Plus, it wouldn't be quite as important as it was in 2012, which many complained about.
I feel like this would be doable but it would not be that great of an idea because of having contact with other robots with no human interaction.
