I'm not saying that a coach can't enter the field, only that you have 4 (sometimes 5) people available to handle the robot, only one of which can be a coach.
Again, I don't think it's ever really a problem getting a student in the question box and handling the robot, but you are limited to the drive team and have to get in the habit of having someone stay behind to ask questions if need be. It's not really problem but if you aren't planning for it it can be.

I don't either as long as you plan ahead for that. This year might be the first time that some teams have needed to use the question box, either because they are rookies or vets that just never have. I'm just pointing out that it's a good idea to leave a driver behind to ask questions incase something comes up.
