Observation- if your team is putting up the 7th or 8th in a ring a ramp bot deflecting a spoiler beats the 60 points

Agreed.
I would also add that rampbots have to be able to play some tough defense (and that makes your point #3 even more important).
Rampbots also cannot (usually) win by themselves. They are an alliance 'bot and require their alliance partners to be able to score on the rack and climb the ramp (not easy considering some of the ramp angles out there).
