I maintain that it does not matter. Very simply: If a team can use whatever drivetrain that they have in a manner that benefits the alliance the best, it does not matter how many motors they have, or what type of drivetrain. Plain and simple. I can't say it any simpler. If a 2WD, 2CIM drivetrain is functional and its robot does the job that my alliance needs it to do better than any other robot out there, then darned if I ain't gonna pick that team regardless of however many 6CIM 8WD robots that do that job there are out there.
You cannot change my mind on this.
