Oh, I just got a name for it! It can pick up the ball from the left or right side, so call it "Ambi-Dexter."

All those arms are disposable. Yes they might get stuck but we won't hesitate to rip them off. Replacing any of that takes seconds and we have two sides so some redundancy. We went for a design we knew would break so we made it easy to fix.
