While we could do that, I don't think it will A. help our alliance all that much in the actual qualification match or B. help display our ability to be a dominant "loop" bot. In Atlanta, with the competition being much more adept, I feel we will be able to "loop" in every match.
Quite honestly I would rather show the ability to hang and get into looping position every single time rather than show our most likely lackluster ability to be an effective striker (as it will look compared to the great bots in Atlanta).
If we are being picked, we are going to be picked for our ability to recycle. This is the reason I feel working in a position which our robot was not designed for is not advantageous.
