The result was the robot would get torn apart between competitions and it became a stressful race against the clock to get it back together. She liked the fact that the competition bot for FRC was safe in a bag between competitions and the tinkerers had to work their improvements out elsewhere.

I agree 100% with this!

I even plan on making a bag and tag rule for my FTC teams this upcoming year to help manage teenage procrastination and the tinkerer syndrome.
