This is how every inspection I've ever been part of is done. Typically we start with weight & size; hence the "come up to inspection" to start.

As several of us have said, there's no "cursory inspection" we can do. Besides, this would change checking in on Wed from a traffic reduction exercise to something that some teams could use to get more time with their robots on Thursday.

Inspections are always supposed to be done after changes; this doesn't do anything to reduced the delays on Thursday.
