I think 1114 and 148 are miles ahead of everyone else, but let's not forget that 1114 is not the only robot in their class.
I agree that 148 is very good, certainly one of the best, but they were not consistently getting 4 6-stacks with 3 caps, at least in quals. If they were, their OPR should be around 120, but it was actually 84. In contrast, 1114 actually did have an OPR of 120.

Interestingly enough though, their component OPRs for containers and totes are comparable. 1114 was scoring way more litter and auto points than 148 though. I expect 148 will be scoring much more in auto once they get Alfred back up and running.
