The one rank point earned by reaching 40 kPA is nice, but not as good two rank points from simply winning the match.
I think he was saying that if you score the 10 fuel in the high efficiency boiler that is 10 points and 10 kPa, so when you score your pre-loaded gear for 40 points in teleop you are now 10 points behind the 60 point autonomous gear.
