If I understand some of the rule changes this year, FIRST made it legal to add ANYTHING to your robot during the competitions this year because they disallowed teams from taking their robot home with them after a regional, and reshipping it to their next one. Also, some teams had plans all along to add a tape measure, but then either did not follow through or took it off because of that one team update. If anything, they are the ones that will most likely put them on, because they had the plans for them all along.
Oh, and why would you be upset? Be happy that teams are learning from others... isn't that what FIRST is all about? =)
