You bring up a really good point about the PWM cables. It's surprising easy to damage one. We had a few issues with some PWM cables this year that took out one of our drivetrain motors. We had enough time to swap the cable during our 4 back to back matches, but if we had to take the controller out, it would have been much harder.
That said, our PWM cables were likely very low quality because after the incident, I was able to cause another PWM cable on our test board to fail by just bending it back a forth a few times.
