I think he was suggesting you modify your restriction to not even lifting the robot off the rope/davit till the field is clear of balls. 90-95% of the lifts to get the robot off the davit would be straight up/down, but every now and then someone's going to grab it funny and have to shift weight and step. or the person freeing the rope will have to shift position slightly. That'd be the absolute worst time to step on a ball.
