In my opinion, the former violates the spirit of the competition (you are only allowed to field one robot). The latter is to be encouraged.

If the 3rd robot is ok with either, both are fine. If, as an alliance, it is determined that the 3rd robot needs a 2-bin grabber and we have a spare version of another, how would it be detrimental to anyone to put it on that 3rd robot? In the same instance, if the alliance members can come together and build a 2-bin grabber before elims and put it on the 3rd robot, how would that be detrimental to anyone?
