One good way to work with overconfident teams is to negotiate strategies that change over the course of the match. For example, in 2014 lots of teams overestimated their ability to shoot and wanted to use the high goal. Some easy ways to compromise with them were 1) ask that the alliance complete a few cycles using the low goal at the start of the match or 2) negotiate what would happen if shooting in the high goal failed a certain number of times.

Those kinds of compromises don’t apply to one-time things like auto, but they can resolve tele-op disagreements amicably.
