A couple extra minutes of CAD work is a couple extra minutes you have to work. A couple extra minutes of between-match maintenance is a couple extra minutes you have to work, a couple extra headaches, and potentially a couple crucial matches where your robot is dead on the field.
Good point, I actually did solve this problem by rotating both CIMs inwards by 10 degrees, though it did take another 3 mins redoing the pockets.
