The existence of the minibot loan "program" is the exact reason that every team should build a deployer even if they aren't building a minibot themselves. Funny thing is, I first thought that the loan program was put into place to cover the likelihood that some, and maybe many, minibots will have less than graceful conclusions to their races. That would leave a team without a possible scoring source and very little time to repair it and have it re-inspected before their next match. The breakage factor seems all the more likely given the emphasis and premium being placed on lightness for the minibots.
