I remember talk in 2010 that said basically this, that people could score enough goals to make hanging useless.

Then we almost didn't build a hanging robot, and if we hadn't, we'd never have won New York. Except for all the 469 matches and some exceptions at the Championship level, hanging was just as important as scoring.

Lesson learned: No matter the end game, it's important, and you shouldn't rule it out.
