The only point of carrying multiple tetras, as far as i can tell, is to cap goals far from your loading stations, specifically, goals on the far side of the field. Otherwise, I think it is faster just to grab one, drive a few feet, cap, and return.
Did you notice how enormous the robot becomes when its got 4 tetras stored on it? If you are planning to send that robot into enemy territory, you will have a lot more trouble from blockers than a smaller robot. It will just be so much easier to block.

maybe they can use the tetras to help themselves do some blocking...
