Re: Eliminating "Start Build Day"
You also "can't" ban practice robots, because what is a practice robot? I challenge anyone to write a rule that rigorously prevents the creation and use of practice robots, without either being so broad it bans all sorts of normal activities, or being so narrow that any number of legal exceptions to the rule exist.
In general, changes that make FRC teams perform worse aren't a good idea.
