There several robots in Curie with that ability - some of which can add some autonomous points and/or center can grabbing....

I'm not criticizing. I'm just wondering if there is something interesting about 379 that I have not seen yet.
Agreed. If 1114 needed a human player station specialist, 148 would be the most solid choice since it basically splits their sides of the field in half with neither of the two having to cross paths for cans or totes unless 1114 decides to litter the landfill cans. I think 1114's pick might be really hard though if there is can grabbers faster than them. Who they pick will be determined by can grabbing speed as well as the would be captains for the other alliances.
