I am not saying that teams might not use them to for post bag development but with the way the question was worded we can not infer that that is the purpose of these "second robots".
Ohh, I get it, the NASA method. Build the robot, put it in the rocket, fire it off to another planet, and then work on coding a close facsimile before it lands.

Meh. Build season is a myth! Pop the bag!
