Every field has tape on it, so therefore it's not flat, right?
The regolith was no more than 1/8" thick. At this point saying a field with a 1/8" depression "isn't flat" is just being pedantic. The miscellaneous hardware and debris that people build ground clearance into drivetrains in order to avoid is generally more than 1/8" tall. You would have to try very, very hard to design a drivetrain that would be issue free on a "truly flat" field that wouldn't work on a 2009 field (ignoring the wheel rules). 2009 is flat.
