Exactly the discussion that 341 had. We actually toyed around with the idea of making a 469 style robot, combined with the covering idea to make the ultimate stationary robot that could end a match. However, in the end we sort of lost our "guts" for pursuing the 469 strategy and quickly realized that while the covering would work, it was not really worth the manufacturing effort or engineering resources.
It will be interesting to see how some teams decide to modify their machines for off-season events. Should be a very fun off-season.
