My team, 254, took advantage of this. As one of the two human players, I stepped back on the mat at 12 seconds whenever we did not want to run our autonomous. This was mostly only during practice when only one team wanted to run autonomous each time, but we used it once during the playoffs. We decided to have only one robot of our alliance run its autonomous period based upon which robot had bins in front of it. One of the coaches signaled us as to which should get on the mat.
Also, as long as the human player gets on the mat between 10 and 15 seconds, there is no penalty during the driver control period. It is only after 15 seconds that the robot is disabled during the driver period.
