I think that in the grand scheme of things, the sensors are somewhat of a red herring. They don't seem very useful when you really think about it, but they can be very distracting and tempting at first, as well as a waste of time.

This is not to say they are totally useless, however. If they could be made to work well, they could be a fine asset. I also think they could be like the Gyrochip. While they are not very important this year, like the gyro, they could play a much more important role in future years.
