Very true- more rungs mean a better chance statistically- but the biggest difference is the "deniability" of the rack. Any team can go balls to the wall and run into the rack. Even teams with an extremely fast drivetrain probably cannot get over to the rack and score before a slow robot shoves it at all.

I expect the Great CarNack to have a post regarding this issue shortly.
