I mean, teams that made their robots almost idiot proof w/ regards to catching a pass from an HP (from literal targets to software compensation to "just throw it in this large hole, you can't miss it) in 2014 were fine. You want someone who can tell your robot is properly aligned or within an acceptable range of degrees of the slot before they start opening the chute door, but the chute this year is so much slower than the 2013 chutes having a fast HP is almost not even a real thing.
You are making a tradeoff if you pull a familiar HP for the purposes of better coordination between teams, and I don't even know if it could be worth it yet. It's just something I'm going to simmer over for a bit.
