I understand that it is in every teams interests to have all team members and mentors memorize all of the rules. It just seams like there are times when people unintentionally break the rules and don't know they are breaking them.

Also, I know that all of the regionals are on a tight time schedule. Perhaps having a few members on the drive team remove the robot, and giving drive team coaches an opportunity to talk to a ref would be of benefit.
I believe they used to do this. The problem is, do you really want flags littering the field during a match? Robots would run over them, move them, and possibly break either the flag or a robot... The flags on dowels the refs have now are probably the best solution.
