This is your same argument, just with a different situation. You state that it's impossible to beat a perfect iteration of 469 and then in the exact same breath, you list potential ways to actually beat 469.

And besides, perfect iterations of nearly every robot design would make it very, very difficult to play defense or to outscore them. But life is never perfect, and that's where strategy comes into play.
I never said "it's impossible to beat a perfect iteration of 469", only that once deployed, this scheme has an ALMOST impossible to overcome advantage, at least when decent they have partners in their alliance.
