The alternative to the 4th bot is the next highest seed... this robot may or may not compliment the alliance. And I think that's where the 4th robot brings the greatest value. The alliance knows if it hits the fan, they'll have a decent replacement. And that team won't have to get up to speed on anything, they already know (or even formed!) the strategy and how to fit within the alliance on the field.
