They've said to build your robot to endure for every year I've been in this program (3). From what I understand, in previous years robots were even allowed to tip other robots over, and thus robots then had to "endure" as well. There is a big difference between building a robot to withstand an impact at full ramming speed and building a robot to endure high-speed swinging hammers and kill saws. I definately don't see FIRST being any closer to battlebots this year than last, so I think you're making a mountain out of a molehill.
