Shortened for simplicity.
Coming from a vet like you KoKo, I completely agree. The goal of creating a competition based around science, learning and technology rivaling a sporting event brings with it some of the normal dramas and creates its own.
2 & 3 are the same old thing you get at any event. Falls on volunteers to be diligent but given the sheer masses sometimes, you're bailing water out of the titanic with a thimble. #4 is one of those things it's everyone's job to use common sense. #5 is one I still shake my head at. Even FTC level teams use carts and you can carry those bots one handed. As for #1, I guess that one is a failure of people to read event site rules.
I'll add to the list though voo voo zella horns
and over the top horns. Those things I'll happily stick in the mud.
