A nice theory, i like how you compared it to football thats interesting, perhaps it could be like baseball too, fielders, pitchers, batters, runners but there would be more subcategories of these things, curveball pitchers, fastbal pitchers, large catchers and small fast ones, fly ball hitters and ground ball hitters, runners would be all different drive trains but definitely the least diverse. and actually there could be a waterboy- a robot whose designated job is to reload the other ones with baseballs.
