Re: Modifying robot at competition?

I read "during the entire competition event" combined with T10 to mean "used on the robot" ...from the time of THAT inspection until the end of the event OR until a new inspection is performed.

IMO, reading "during the entire competition event" to mean the robot can only include mechanisms present at the initial inspection is "lawyering" this rule. Again--just my opinion.
Agreed, neither T08 nor T10 make as much sense without clearly indicating T08 is competition-based; it obscures the intent and limitations of interchangeability. T10 is crystal clear that T08 re-inspections are legal; T08 is just telling you when you don't need to get reinspected. If anything, the concept of re-inspection could be incorporated into T08, if it can be done without redundancy.

Didn't we want a shorter rule book?
