More storage is always good!

If you hang your hat on pneumatics, then you want all the reserve power you can get. The compressor is heavy, and if you can get enough storage on the 'bot to get away with out having that compressor mounted, then all the better. That much less weight, volume and power use you need to worry about.

So, outside of having lots of air to use, you might be able to drop the compressor altogether.
