I think you'll find that when there are six different IR transmitters going at once, it will be virtually impossible to successfully turn hybrid mode into another driver control period. All teams will need to exercise some amount of autonomy to perform reliably, and that the knowledge of how to do that should be passed on to those who don't have it. Believe me when I say that this will still undoubtedly be a challenge for all involved.
