If you want more details just ask...
Details por favor. I mean details on why you have that belief. I don't see why the line sensors would not be as efficient on a strafing bot than on a robot that can't. Is it because the strafing bot has to change its rotation of the motors(I think these are called crab drive) or reverse the motors (mecanium or omni) to strafe? The robot has to do those actions even with a camera.
