Q22 Multiple Rope Materials?

Are ropes allowed to be composed of multiple different materials (each of which comply with I04)? If composed of multiple materials, must those materials be twisted/woven/stitched/braided together to satisfy I04-D, or may they be attached together by other methods? If composed of multiple materials, must each material span the entire length of the rope?
asked 2 days ago by FRC 1712 ROPE

Answer
Yes, there are no rules which require a ROPE to be composed of uniform material. Yes, a ROPE must be twisted, tied, woven, or braided, per I04-D. There is no requirement that any component material of a ROPE span the entire length of the ROPE.

emphasis added
Seems like they are making it really easy to add velcro to the end of the rope.
