Points in Autonomous

Maybe I am missing something here, and if so, feel free to flame me.

But, by my understanding of the rules, the most point an alliance can score during the autonomous mode is 8, derived from three keepers in a row. While these may serve as a base to build more points, during the 15 second autonomous period that is the highest number of points possible.

Base on this, how much engineering, design, and build time should a team spend on this part of building the robot?

Considering that 15-30 points are possible during the "home section" phase at the end of the match, it would make more sense to spend more time attempting to perfect this portion of the match.

Thoughts, ideas, and rebuttals are solicited.
