Considering the GDC made an update to the blue box in R2 specifically addressing tethered robots. I highly doubt this design will be "overturned".

The intent is that the Team’s number is clearly visible and unambiguous so that Judges, Referees, Announcers, and other Teams can easily identify competing ROBOTS. Consider the numbers as the license plates for your ROBOT. If an observer has to follow a tether to idenitfy the ROBOT’s team number, that is considered not clearly visible and does not meet the requirements of R2.
