We do take a little time making sure the competition bot runs similarly to the practice bot.

Without the unbagging time, we wouldn't have ever figured out why our potentiometers have been wonky for several years (300 degrees of turn, 60 degrees of response).
Can you cite the rules supplement or wherever this is stated? It seems strange to me since I thought the intent of the 6 hour window was to replace Thursday at regionals, where teams can bring in prefabricated items.
