Presuming FIRST FMS releases data on BOILER points, I think Billfred hit the nail on the head with the fuzzy logic: do they spend a lot of time at the boiler, or not?

Record a fuzzy group number for each load of balls taken to the boiler - 1=Less than 10-count, 3=more than 30-count, or 2=in between. Put a Gold Star if the team seemed to focus on fuel that match.

Take all gold star bots, divide amount of boiler points per match by the average grouping. Voila! Imperfect, but possibly-good-enough way to determine the best fuel bots at a competition. It won't order them bot-for-bot, but at most events bots rated in the middle-of-the-pack for fuel will likely be used in elims roles that include, but do not revolve around, fuel.
