You know 1114 can totally do that just with their good scouting and picking a dark horse for their 2nd or (now) 3rd pick. I know cause they did that at GLR in 2007. (Their dark horse let them down for embarrassing reasons, but still.) I'm pretty sure getting picked by 1114 or any #1-8 division alliance is going to make a team's day. I'm also pretty sure that having a specialist robot that's working well passed over for a poorly working robot that can be more easily cheesecaked stings a bit. So I'm pretty sure cheesecaking is zero sum at best for overall inspiration.
