Which is one of many reasons I don't like Smart Dashboard for use during competition. Debugging/development is fine. Relying upon it for competition is asking for trouble.

Switches on the Robot (either via AIO or DIO) is very easy to do. Switches on the Driver Station is a little harder, and comes with many advantages.
