One reason might be that you can do these 20 or 30 point cycles faster than a 40 point cycle. Say it takes 45 seconds for some alliance to complete a 3 assist cycle. If one robot has the ability to pass the ball from their defensive zone, over the truss, to a partner in the offensive zone, they may be able to complete this 30 point cycle in say 30 seconds. Using those times, they could do 3 40 point cycles for 120 points, or 5 30 point cycles for 150 points. What would you do?
