It can actually be very useful. While the name "spy bot" is stupid. It can be used as a way to score a goal during autonomus (because all bots can start with one ball on any side). (10 points high goal, 5 points low goal which is much more than teleop scoring). Or the bot can be used to quickly come hold open a drawbridge or gate at the beginning of a teleop so that robots can cross without having to scale the rock wall or etc.
