Don't assume anything yet. The robots you have seen are just a small section of all the robots. There are 900 different robots, well as least 899 (sorry 60 and 254). There is probably around 1/9 to 1/8 that have been posted. There will be many more that will not manipulate the 2x ball and/or hang. These were just the more cool features this year and gave a team a good reason to show off their work. I expect to see many more that focus on small balls, whether that be by choice or by default. It will be the easier of tasks to complete. I'm not saying it's easy to be good at it but it is easy enough to be mediocre. Especially if your robot complete no other task.
