Interesting idea for auton, but consider what it does to teleop.

There is no way to push a ball out of the way in auton without pushing it towards the outer works that the opponents are consistently crossing. This means that in teleop, if those balls are near those outer works they are effectively the opposing alliance's balls. At that point, for you to retrieve them you run the risk of contacting the opponent when they're in the outer works.

This is why defense bots at high levels need a great intake - they need to steal the balls from the midzone first so they don't plow them the wrong direction as they move across for defense.
