For the the purpose of less time standing at reloading station.
Pros: team throwers don't have to be as accurate and can rapid fire and a simpler robot (remember K.I.S.S.)
Cons: this is a maybe and don't quote me on this but somehow i heard that there is a rule that you can only put 1 ball at a time in the reloading station (i.e. no mass dumping of 10 balls at once) so this might rule out a dumper.

There is no such rule! In the future try not to post "rules" you think exist. All it does is beget more confusion.
Anyways, I too think one of these turreted shooter deals takes way too much time and effort to make precise. I'd much rather slam into a trailer than try to line myself up precisely (or trust the camera to line me up) from three feet away.
