Very

For one, we are allowed several different types of motors, given us the flexibility of choosing which we will use and how we will allocate them to different functions and evaluating various trade offs.

Second, we are not restricted to motors to power all robot functions. We are allowed to use forms of stored energy other than the provided battery, we can use pneumatics, etc.
