I'd say that if you really want an answer, try to ask it again, but worded different. (don't personally know how, but try...)

All I know is that (and i don't care how much i get paid, not to mention that the FIRST ppl aren't really getting paid a lot...) I'd hate to have to answer all those questions. I was trying to read some, but totally gave up b/c 1/2 of them are pointless.

Also, If FIRST tried to say every rule for everything... they'd go crazy. They will most likely leave some things just up to the judges there and let them decided using common cense and the knowldge of the situation. IF they find that something re-occures a lot that they left up to the judges, then they might make an 'offical' decision. (like the 'mini-bots' last year)

Personally, I know many ppl have said that these things will snap in two all the time. I personally will have to say that they do look like they'll be broken all the time.... something tells me that FIRST did a lot of testing to see what kind of forces that these things take. AND... I have a hunch that they're a little harder to break than we think.
