No, it's really not. Doing it reliably, well, accurately are all very hard. But merely doing it is really easy. 125's 2 ball autonomous was written in a hotel room in under 10 minutes. It went 11/12 balls last weekend. Yes, I am relatively experienced, but the core code blocks in that auton were written by a sophomore and junior in HS with very little help.

The core of my statement wasn't that teams don't prioritize auton. It was that they simple can't reliably move. I had a robot start to drive and have their intake fall apart, didn't hit anything, just started decided the field needed some debris. I also had robots sit and spin one way, then the next in a futile attempt to move. And they wouldn't accept help, they insisted everything was fine. For TWO events...
