I can definitely see an anxious robot team forgetting to bring in an arm before taking the robot off the field to get out of the way for a reset.
What will happen if they do this?
Yes, it's called the door way to get access from most pits to the playing field. Most of the sites the pits are in a different room, so the robot will need to clear the door.

The loud crunching sound when the robot hits the surrounding frame will be the notification that they are out of spec.
