Engineering is about tradeoffs. This is one of the tradeoffs. If you don't like the fact that putting yourself up on the bar is difficult, feel free to not do it. Just be aware that a number of other teams think that it's not that difficult and will be hanging, getting themselves 2 or even 3 points. If you can stay on the floor and score 2 or 3 points that way, that is your decision.

Tradeoff: Hang for 2-3 points, depending on hanging place, or kick more goals for however many points you can get. Your choice.
