If teams cross the line and abuse this new option, we could quikly be back to the "Bag and Forget" option of the past and that would be disappointing.

In my opinion, fitting a manipulator is working on the robot, for all of the reasons stated by others.
I'm inclined to agree with this. I do question software though. If you bagged your robot with no code on it, but have been working on a separate robot, can you download the code you've been working on so you can drive/demo?
