Saw this in three regionals thus far this year where a random team was chosen, for in some cases great reasons that do not involve the actual robot, to then see that robot get parked off to the side while robots 1 and 2 win the tournament.

Don't assume that they were told to do nothing. Just because they sat there doesn't mean that decision was single sided. It is very likely the idea came up and that team agreed to it.
