Now, I really love FIRST and what we do, but this is what drives me crazy. What's so hard about saying "exposed" if you mean "exposed," "visible" if you mean "visible." At this stage of the buildtime, you can't scrap your whole design plan and start over because the rulemakers at FIRST don't know how to use a dictionary. Please pardon my tone, but you all know how much we invest in this and how many people are affected by such vagaries. In my most humble opinion, such ambiguity is neither gracious nor professional. While I'm ranting, if there is a rules clarification with such potentially huge design impact made on the FIRST forums, I believe that it should be published in terms unambiguous as possible ASAP in a team update rather than remaining buried in the myriad posts that are sometimes tedious to follow. Team update #5 did not do this.
Sorry for the steam. I'm taking deep breaths.
