Yes, please reinforce it. The rules may be in place, but they can be broken. The only thing to protect your design is the design itself. No penalty in any way shape or form for any game will guarantee protection to your mechanisms. Only your design does.

Other than that, your robot seems like it could be a valuable asset to any alliance. I was just talking to some students about strategies today and one of the designs we mentioned that we would want on an alliance looks very much like yours.
