Perhaps a game in which robots are (or are permitted to be) equipped with scissors to aid an important scoring function, and a concomitant prohibition on running while so equipped, might combine to eliminate the incentive for high speed in drivetrains?

Ambling with scissors .... ?

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
