Did you use Ed Law's spreadsheets for all of these numbers?

Good teams playing together should have a very small impact on OPR... it seems about as likely to slightly decrease or stagnate after Week 6 or 7 as it is to increase. Teams can't easily double scoring contribution during auto (if you have two 3-tote-autos in the same qual match) and have to work harder to double teleop scoring... (i.e., have to work to get more cans off the step, easy to eat through the landfill, etc.). Then there's obviously the issue of field congestion.
Regardless, having high scoring teams together shouldn't impact OPR... OPR should 'filter' all that out. Obviously QAs will continue to rise to be higher and higher.
