A very BIG test of gracious professionalism

I'm not sure where to go with this aspect of the game.

I'm asking myself very seriously, if a robot can't automatically eject a ball when disabled, should it be allowed to intake it?

Autonomous is also very tricky - if your robot requires the ball to be inside your robot at the start of the match, and can't be easily freed by another robot, your alliance partners might ask you not to run it.

How would you feel if your alliance partners ask you never to pick up a ball? Or to not run your autonomous?

Would you ask your alliance partners not to do those things?

Because right now, this seems like the prudent thing to do.
