I believe a lot of top level teams will have great success this year using the 775Pros in their drivetrain. This year weight is probably not the huge driver that it is in many years so I don't suppose it will be as common as it would have been if teams were fighting for every gram.
Even so, I would not make blanket statements predicting failure when I don't think the data necessarily support this conclusion.
FWIW, you will have much less margin for error when it comes to overheating your drive motors but that does not mean that good teams with sound engineering can't find a way to make it work.

The OP is from an inexperienced team asking if they could use 1 cim in their drivetrain for weight savings. Teams using 775Pros in their drivetrain should know enough that 1 cim isn't a good idea, and will likely be aware of all the 775pro dangers.
I suppose I could've included all those caveats, but the last thing I want is a young team smoking motors on the field.
