Yes it would. That was a counter arguement. One would have to tweak the power of the burst to only affect things in a yard radius (it would take tremendous amount of power just for this) and deploy it when you bump another bot. Also, one would need to shield the electronics on one's own bot (or temporarily turn them off like in Broken Arrow).
