It happens to everyone from time to time. Insulation gets rubbed off and things short. I recall in 2006 a team had their PWM cables short to their frame and their nylon coverings went up in smoke. Plus, these sort of things aren't always really damaging to a robot, insulation burning can create a ton of smoke but only requires replacing the wire.
