When does it become necessary/advantageous for a more average team to build two different robots to compete at both a regional/district level, using Robot A and strategy A and at the championship level, using Robot B and strategy B?

I don't think I've ever heard of a team building two different robots intended for use at different levels of competition.
I'm also not sure there's a legal way of doing so within the rules of FRC.
The only comparisons I can come up with are total robot rebuilds, where much of the robot is rebuilt or replaced using the withholding allowance and COTS parts, and when 2826 brought an entirely new machine with them to IRI 2013.
