I think the reason for the correlation is the long guys chose long because they felt the benefits outweighed the drawbacks in the game as it was presented at the beginning of the season. The wide bot teams went down the opposite road, choosing to take the potential maneuverability and stability penalties in favor of a better chance of triple balancing. But now, we are playing a game that the robots are, effectively, not designned to play. Instead of only needing to triple with an alliance of your choosing, which could be tailored to fit its captains robot, you get a random alliance for all of your qualification matches. Many teams would probably have built a different robot to play these rules than the ones they came to competition with.
