Well I'm wondering if a team will abuse this fact and have a giant blanket to completely obstruct a drive team's view of the entire field. What a predicament that would be!

There's a chain of rules that will lead in the general direction of a Red Card if this strategy is attempted. [R01] starts the chain (inspection will keep the robot off the field), then you get the safety rules and egregious behavior rules, as well as having to be legal to compete (and failure to be legal is a disablement at minimum).
