Whether to buy a Bandit in the first round should be carefully decided depending on the agent's abilities and strategy.
The Bandit presents new possibilities, but it also has aspects that do not solve existing problems and rather deepen them.
The Bandit is very useful in certain situations, but it is not the best choice in all situations.
