To extend my opinion, I think that swerve is most of the time not necessary. If a team doesn't have resources and does swerve, then they are going to sacrifice game / end effectors.
Leading up to the 2011 season, 2220 did two full swerve iterations. We still didn't move for a regional and a half.

That said, I think the resources available for teams to do swerve are ininitely better than they were then.

I'll be interested to see how many swerves pop up for the 2015 season.
