Aside from manipulating the crates extra fast the shape does allow for other desirable traits. During wind tunnel tests the lightning bolt shape performed far superior to other intake shapes. While in the up position they cut through the air as the elevator rises and in the down position they provide little resistance as the robot traverses the field.
