To be fair, we did this testing before the season even started, and made the decision not to use anything before the rules came out. I know other teams have tried to use sailkote in the past, but we wanted to collect data on what the effect would be. It was mainly for experimental purposes. I probably should have phrased it better.
Asking the question on the Q+A would likely result in a ruling against sailkote, so asking the Q+A "to be safe" wasn't exactly the right choice of words. That we would ask the Q+A before proceeding is probably a better description of how we would treat the situation, if it ever came up.
