Honestly, with the size of the field, and the amount of stuff that's on it, I don't see a need for shifting. There's not enough space to really get up to speed anyway.
I also agree with you in that the field is too small for a shifter. But I can see it being used in mechanism designs. The most immediate design would be a winch system that FRC used this year.
