Our team discovered a fairly specific but still notable advantage to scoring a keeper: the sixth tube in a row is quite critical when you're the only scoring bot on an alliance going up against an alliance hoping to score 60 bonus points. We could fairly consistently score five by ourselves, but had trouble getting that elusive sixth one that would have given us the win in quite a few matches. If our autonomous mode had been working before Saturday morning, we might have had different outcomes in quite a few matches.

This is true, but my original point was that it seems much less significant compared to last year. It can do some good, but i think there should be a greater reward for doing it especially since it is nearly impossible to hit anything without using the camera. I think I have seen one or two teams luck out and hang a keeper in auto without the camera. It was messy but it actually worked...once.
