You are absolutely right. Go straight to the GDC and demand that they never design a game like this again that so diminishes the role of the 3rd robot. But don't expect teams in a competitive environment to act solely out of the "goodness of their hearts."

Look at the posts from individuals on teams that are being quite successful this year. None are saying "leave us alone because we're perfectly happy with the status quo." They are universally saying "we're stuck with the cards we've been dealt. Why cut off the best way that we can help other teams just because the deck came out so stacked and the no one is willing to look at how to really reshuffle the deck?"
