I understand what you're saying about a 15 point swing not being drastic or insurmountable, but there's something to be said about knowing that you'll have a consistent score after autnonomous that doesn't leave any wasted points on the table. That's one less deficit to try and overcome in any given match and one less variable to remove from the equation when planning an optimum strategy for scoring.
