I completely agree that it is highly flexible for scoring, but it is not easy to build(we have never done it)
Doesn't necessarily require lots of motors, or wiring..or sensors. It depends on your design. You design how simple or how complex it will be.

You can have a 6 jointed arm in which each joint is independently controlled wtih 6 motors, or you can have a 6 jointed parallel arm that is totally designed with chain to keep the end parallel to the ground, or to move in such a certain way with just one or two base motors to control the whole thing.

The arm has the advantage over the elevator lift in speed and flexibility.
