By poor gripper I mean slow grab, slow release, awkward release onto the rack, holding the tube vertically, etc. Also, there are a few that attempted to be ramps only, but failed, or ended with sub-par ramps.

I agree that there are alot of bad robots, I disagree that there are more bad robots than normal.
I admit that, at first, my team did try to do arm and ramp but it was in the middle of the building process when we realized that it just wasnt happening so we became a SUPER COOL rampbot.
