Well Team 57 is going with a modular design, mainly seperate manipulators for big and small balls, and a limbo option if we use neither. But I'm concerned about this talk about weight. The way I've understood it, modularity would help decrease weight. According to Q12, Update 3, different configurations get weighed seperately. so as long as all your modules can't be used at once, you don't have to weigh in with all of them on the robot.....
