To quote that one guy (JVN) "design is an iterative process" and continuous improvement is the name of the game for people who are working towards Einstein.
So if you build an arm that turns out so-so, and have the possibility available to build a new one, or improvements to the old one, and you don't do it, thats your loss in competitive edge.
Nothing to do with "GP"

In no way was I trying to say that you shouldn't do this. In fact, it is in the rules that you can bring upgraded parts, spares, etc... So you should.
The entire point, which I guess I missed, was that no one should be upset about being allowed to bring 30 pounds of material, even if it was cut down from last year.
In my opinion, you essentially turn a 6 week build season into a 20ish week build season (if you make the Championships). I do not like the rule that you are allowed to bring actual parts with you to a competition. I did however, like the 'old' days when you would bring material with you and make the parts at the competition.
Just my own preference.
Good luck all.
