Debatable. It was hard enough to assist with teams already. If the point value were higher, I'd bet more teams would spend their resources on catching at the expense of improving their intake/outtake ability.

Ideally more teams built robots like 1712 (quick drivetrain, big catching area, good intake/outtake, no shooter), but most teams bite off more than they can chew.
