But of course, there's no such thing as a dumb question...
With more matches, it will probably help most teams get their robot almost completely tuned up before the second day. But if we had a Thursday...we could use that time to do the tuning up, and as a result would play better in the matches on Friday. Oftentimes, there's not a huge gap between matches, and that doesn't provide a lot of time to have a failing aspect of the robot completely changed. With the practice day, we have a field to test features on, and if they don't work, we have an almost unlimited amount of time to fix them.
So yes, it would help, but it's not as good as a Thursday.
