Re: Interesting observation on stats for this year (to the end of March)
I think one contributing factor is that in quals you more often have to deal with a random robot getting stuck or dying on a defense, which forces the alliance to attempt the class C defense. By eliminations, failure prone robots have been filtered out and teams don't bother with class C due to time/difficulty/specialization.
