Granted, getting your 3rd robot to go for the coopertition bonus isn't a bad idea.

But if a robot on your alliance and a robot on the opposing alliance can both go up on the bridges, then choosing to go for the coopertition bonus instead of independently scoring would mean 10 poinrs less for each alliance. This means it would be a wash in terms of point, net point differential change of 0. But both alliances stand to gain in doing this by taking the coopertition bonus.
