Week 0 events aren't usually a valid baseline for the year. Top teams don't go to them, and the teams that do aren't generally ready.
I'm confidant many Einstein alliances can hit 6 stacks.... but they DON'T NEED to if they have the 4 center containers. Some simple math shows that if the other alliance only has 3 containers, you don't need to score all 7 you control to likely win (I'll leave this exact calculation as an exercise to the reader).
I'm certain 1678 understands they are less likely to seed 1st if they do this in auto every seeding match... but I'm also certain they have this all factored in.
Small minded thinking won't get you to Einstein, you need to think big.
It's frustrating to see so much negativity in response to such an awesome team, posting such an awesome feature, that has some awesome technical difficulty to accomplish.

100% on point. 1678s goal is Einstein and they clearly built a strategy and robot around that. Those who are putting it down don't understand the upper level strategies and nuances that comes with those type of goals and aspirations.
Definitely looking forward to seeing this robot in person. Seems to be 2826s perfect partner. Hope to play together at champs.
