3 tote auto probability poll

So there has been a running debate on our team. One of our high rated priorities is a three tote auto. We deemed that even if it is not accomplished, having a robot designed to do so (as in have qualities that would be required for the task. Quick tote stacking, good control of stack totes etc.) would be a competitive robot. Now some of our team members ranging from freshman to senior have deemed it impossible off the bat (dangerous to do as we deemed it a priority as a team.) The problem is that these claims are just based on theory, not fact. ( I guess most of design is theory, but impossible is a word not to be used lightly.)

My real question for you guys is what do you think? Is a three tote auto worth doing? Would it be an accomplish-able task for a relatively experienced team? Or is it really as impossible as some have said? Please provide specific situations, or examples walking through your reasoning for either view point.

I used to instead of too. Ma bad.
