Doesn't that mean that there are (at least) two different models of motors using the same BaneBots part number?

To which motor(s) do the present specs on the BaneBots page apply?

Does FIRST know that there are multiple motors, and is FIRST alright with this?

This might be legal if either:
  1. Both types of 775s were provided to various teams in the KOP; or
  2. The "acceptable part numbers" part takes precedence over "the BaneBots motors provided in the KOP".
