In reality, you're likely right, but it's nice to dream

If its possible for a team to have a continuous stream of fuel going into the High Efficiency Boiler for 135 seconds of teleop (x 5 fuel processed per second) (x 1/3 points per fuel) that would be 225 points. Let's also assume this robot also gets a 60 point AUTO, accounting for 285 SOLO points.

You wouldn't need to have powerhouse alliance members to get frighteningly high scores. The other 2 robots could get a couple rotors moving (80-100 pts) and help keep the fuel overflowing.

At the very least, this strategy would put a lot stress on a team full of gearbots.
