Re: Thoughts on whether the size change will be permanent?

I agree wholeheartedly that the change in sizing requirements has made this year very interesting and highly challenging. I think, at various points in this process, we've all just wished for a little more room to make things fit. I too expect that the size requirements will change year to year to prevent veteran teams from just re-using chassis engineering from prior years.

The genesis for this change may have been early during the LogoMotion build season when a few veteran teams posted photos of their Rack n Roll robots with the caption "Done". As always, I look forward to the monkey wrenches that FIRST will throw at us next year.
