Sour spot

Don't ignore the possibility of a "sour spot" for some robots. Because of the vertical range and style of our lift, four is likely to be a sour spot for us. What I mean by this is that we may need more margin time to get from 2 to 3 and from 3 to 4 totes in a capped stack than to get from 4 to 5 and from 5 to 6.

Our uncapped stack timing should be closer to linear; the sweet spot will be risk-based.
