Mad Dash for the Controls?

As per Team Update #7, there's a new rule that dictates team members must remain 3 feet away from the field barrier and control systems.

This means that, after the autonomous period ends, there's going to be a mad dash for your team's controls. Conceivably, this could affect matches adversely (in my eyes, anyway.)

I would hate to see matches won or lost because someone's not a sprinter. I know, it's only 3 feet. . . but, it just seems like this new rule is probably creates more of a safety hazard than already exists, and is to prohibit something that is probably just as easily accomplished by asking teams not to touch their controls during the autonomous period - or penalizing them if they do.

Any thoughts?
