Tote Bot vs. Container Bot?

My team is debating whether it would be more useful to build a robot that can stack totes or place containers on top of totes.

It seems like a good "container bot" might be picked by an alliance captain in the finals because of its specialty.

However, the "container bot" doesn't seem like it will be very useful on its own (especially if it's randomly paired with no tote-stacking robots), and if it can't stack the container accurately well... mmm... not so good.

I figure there will probably be lots of good "tote bots" (maybe for good reason), so "container bots" might find a niche.

Thoughts?
