Anyways, just like last year, you'd be operating at 1/3 efficiency. And it wouldn't happen in elimination if teams chose wisely. Probably the tasks would be similar enough that robots could reasonably do all three, but in order to excel at one they'd have to sacrifice efficiency on the other two.
But you forget. If you were tethered to a spot where you couldn't do anything, you'd be hopeless. If you were placed in a field last year that you didn't make your robot for, you could still succeed because you could push/kick the ball from wherever. Plus, you could travel over or through the tunnel to get to the side you needed. And if all else failed, you could ask your alliance members to let you go in the zone you wanted, unlike the "random" choosing of being tethered.
