Now, by collaborating, you're already breaking some standard team barriers and sharing ideas, which isn't bad. However, I think that my actively having participants (mentors in this case) that are crossing between teams, it becomes...weird to say the least, and it sets up the precedent of being able to openly swap teams.

As of now I completely agree with that, and think if we should we should find a place for the 2nd team. Its just too complicated to have 2 teams in the same shop, when the mentors and coaches are combined. And students from both teams actively build both robots. In fact we did not decide which robot was which teams until the last week of build season.
