Re: Petition to end the shouting of ROBOT

As chief Safety Captain for my team, I find it completely necessary to shout "ROBOT" At competitions.
Sometimes it gets carried away, but for the most part it's actually very helpful. It helps move things along in a quick and efficient manner, and creates a safer environment by reducing the chance of robot/human collision accidents, thus resulting in fewer injuries. Let me ask you this, would you rather keep everyone safe and reduce injuries considerably, and have to deal with a couple possible pesky chain-reaction shouts, OR Slow the movement of robots to the field, and produce a higher risk of injury to humans/robots?
I find the former option to be more appealing.
