Having a bunch of these little pocket modifications and mix ups to a strategy you run is what can provide you the security or comfort of going up against not just an average robot but the unknown. If you only ever did boulder breaching scouts would pick up on it in an instant and then someone would go "just do this" and you would be out of luck again.
In a community full of smart people like this one no matter what strategy you bring to the table, unless its a choke hold someone, somewhere, will figure you out. All that is needed is time.
I posted one of my mixups at 1:00pm in less then twenty minutes someone had formed a solid counter point, and by the 40 minute mark the counter strategy started to form. By 2:30pm someone had called a different strategy to address the same problem.
