Wheels with rollers (mecanum, omni) don't get T-boned, they just get pushed. This could be a positive or a negative depending on your team's strategy. Swerve also can't get T-boned because you can turn the wheels 90* and drive away from the T-boner.
Wheels with rollers also can't cause a T-bone, since they can't push with any substantial force. Swerve drive can place a T-bone.
