Useless Gear Slot in Overflow Loading Station?

I may not be fully correct but I believe that the overflow station gear drop is for the gear the opposing alliance has not taken as preload for autonomous. so like if your alliance only takes one gear preload the other two go to the overflow on the other side of the field.
