Keeping in mind our interviewee wasn't the person who actually got the robot reweighed-but-not-inspected, of course. But yes, by that account it sounds like a pretty tragic misunderstanding or miscommunication about the nature of that reweighing.
I don't know what their practices are in Orlando, but our LRI at Lone Star usually makes a point of asking elim teams if they've made any significant changes to the robot since they were last inspected. Which wouldn't count as a re-inspection, obviously, but would hopefully have prompted the team to say "Why yes, we have...".
EDIT: Also, I agree that those production values are pretty impressive, aside from the bit of out of focus interview I saw while similarly hunting. Now I want to know how to get those guys at, say, the Lone Star Regional...
