How many times is enough to prove consistency?

I just realized that you could keep all scouting data about defense crossing and climbing in one chart for all teams. In doing so, you could have each cell representing how a team handles a particular defense. For example, every match, you can rate a crossing as "Good", "Struggle", or "Unsuccessful", perhaps with different colors to represent each, or different locations within the cell. This would really help those with paper-based systems as one scout could quickly record all of the information (after the match, based on other scouts' findings) into one chart that visually represents robots' abilities and success rates. I'll post an example when I get time to do it.

How many times do you think are required, for defenses and for climbing, for a robot to prove that they are capable of consistently passing a defense? (i.e. how much information would be necessary on a chart?)
