I agree with what you said but I was using the comparison a lot of other people were using to keep the perspective the same when giving points to those last gears. If you're running low on time, you shouldn't go for them. If you can make it then the average for each of those 6 gears is quite high.
Overall this does not negate the original post.
Even the first 6 gears won't be achieved each time, but I feel mostly because of the low priority given to them in the robot design. Most teams so far seem content with just the mail slot approach, and leave the lining up to the driver.
Given some focus, gears can be gathered and placed faster than people expect.
