Read the passage. "At the start of the summer robotics workshop, Julian refused to share his wiring schematics with his teammates, convinced his design was superior. However, during the practice run, his robot stalled on the inclined ramp while team two's collaborative robot smoothly navigated the barrier. Realizing his isolated approach had overlooked battery distribution, Julian showed his schematics to Maya and Ethan the next morning. Together, they combined their ideas into a lightweight chassis that took first place at the regional exhibition." Which statement BEST expresses a central theme developed across the passage?

Overlooking battery placement guarantees complete mechanical failure. Winning first place at competitions requires using expensive robot chassis. Individual talent is always more reliable than group effort. Collaboration and openness often lead to greater success than isolated pride.
