ditto to that! I'm also noticing a lot of this in videos (some labeled as reveal) with no wheel covers.

I'm having flashbacks to breakaway when we spent precious manhours making sure we didn't allow balls under our bot only to have FIRST decide that as long as a whole lot of people are doing it, then lets not follow the rules...
