Dealing with ensuring that all sizing boxes are compliant with the rules prior to allowing a team to demonstrate that their robot is compliant with the sizing box is several times as much work, and a recipe for disaster.

That's not to say that "choose your starting volume shape" option isn't doable, but I would hope it's implemented better than every team fabricating their own sizing box.
I didn't say it was a good idea, just a reasonable guess Probably isn't it, it's probably (and hopefully) something we'll never see coming. Can't wait to find out on January 3rd though!
