I meant that to the effect of: We had to ship our robots and therefore needed a uniform date. The robot then left our possession and so it wouldn't be possible to keep working on it. Now that the robot stays in our possession for weeks, there's no reason we shouldn't be allowed to work on it.

I mean we're working on its twin for the weeks up to regional. All FIRST is doing is making us spend twice as much money to stay competitive.
