That was the original thought, but someone pointed out that some robot designs might depend on the door existing, to control tote velocity or the like. What we are going with seems like a good compromise.

There's no restriction on how the extra RCs can be placed or what they can contact. You just obviously can't put them in the auto zone get a free container set. The original RCs have to be in compliance with the official rules, though like IRI we won't make a fuss about teams adjusting them while setting up.
