What rule was broken again?

From my understanding, team needed to remove weight, team asked inspector if they could use batteries as ballast, inspector said yes. Team proceed to do this then went to get reinspected and weight and would told that they were inspected.

If my understanding is wrong, please let me know, but going off that understanding the robot was inspected while in play, it was a failure of an inspector to document the change.
