The placement of that boulder on the center line is in a location that could hinder the other alliance from crossing a defense should they choose that, as the secret passage is directly in front and not a defense. So it comes down to do I stop them from scoring 10 points or do I score 10 points, also do I risk hitting them if we go for that ball at the same time?

Also awesome auto, though i don't think that bench grinder is a legal FRC robot.
