I think it would be wrong to intentionally try to do both. At the same time, it's natural as your seeing teams come through and watching them to form opinions on which one is best. Half the time I'm up at the field between matches, I'm chatting with the MC and game announcer about the relative merits of different robots (it helps that I know both of those individuals very well). But despite forming those opinions, I don't collect any actual data to back them up. That's the job of the people actually tasked with scouting on my team, sitting up in the stands. Since the team alliance decisions are based solely on hard data and not opinions, my opinions never really seem to come up during the teams Friday evening meeting.
