They were mostly integrated-ramp feeder stackers and can stealer/landfill stackers.
Not every team with the self-stacking mechanism made it to Einstein - hence why I added the bit about complete perfection in execution... that in itself isn't possible, plus not that many teams even had a self-stacking mechanism. and if they did, most weren't well executed.
