This might be a stretch... but he was standing on the game field, so maybe human players can get be in the field at some point in the game? I know a lot of fouls were called last year because of human players reaching in. So it's just a thought.

Anyway, I think maybe it's got something to do with 3D printing. Several teams got environmentally-friendly 3D printers from Ekocycle, right? And a lot of the discussion has been focused around triangles, yes? Maybe the game pieces will require a specialized "grabbing" or "loading" mechanism that might not be as widely-available, so we have to design it ourselves. It gives the CAD crew a chance to shine, like how auton is kind of the programmers' claim to fame.
