Sharing motor(s) tranmissions in Swerve drive

For some background on our team's first ever summer prototype work read this thread.

What I am posting here is a request for what you think would be the pros and cons of having a single motor and transmission per side of a crab-steer drive system. (What is a side in a swerve system?) Consider having a single transmission with one or two motors being shared with two modules per side. Front/Rear or Left/Right. Add to that the concept of also steering modules in the same pairs. I'd like to reference a white paper by team 79 Krunch for info on steering options in swerve drives.

Anyhow,
Post your thoughts
