Re: Penalizing mecanum wheeled robots durring alliance selection.

I don't think mecanum wheels are a great drivetrain. That said, I think a lot of teams who choose mecanum wheels also make other poor choices for their robot, and that is the real reason they aren't on Einstein.

The Einstein level teams pick teams who have high quality and reliable robots, which are generally made by teams who don't use mecanum wheels.

That is not meant to be a blanket statement, but my general view and opinion.
