"hey, we need a tighter cycle time" - Easier said than done.

Which would you prefer: 7 minute cycle times where the FTA's have time to help robots connect, or more disable robots in order to stick with 6 minute cycle times?

It is easy to have sub-6 minute cycle times when robots are connecting. When running with 7 minute cycle times, that gives you a few minutes to help a team with a problem when they do come up.
