What about teams that specifically build for the tournaments they're attending? I've seen several teams show up to their first tournament with major subsystems that are intentionally left off. Early season tournaments are generally less competitive than tournaments later in the season, and planning to scale your robots ability to the tournaments you're attending is one method to build a robot that you don't have the resources to finish in six weeks. I don't see this as not coming prepared, but rather strategic planning.
