There are a handful of teams that can easily climb and shoot, like 1114, 148, etc. but many non-powerhouse teams that climb can only climb.

Why? 1114 doesn't need the points

If they can do it all, why should a team that spent all their efforts on one thing, climbing, be rewarded for skipping the rest?
One robot hangs at 30 points and negates any advantage of an entire alliance hanging for 10 points each. Plus their partners are still free to do either, hang or shoot.
Yes, hanging at the top is hard, but so is shooting 10 three-pointers. I think the points are just right.
