Re: <S03> What is the definition of shielded
If I can't poke it with a baseball bat, it's shielded. Try to make sure some other robot can't jam their arm into yours and break your flywheel, or if you have a catapult or something like that, make sure it can't hit anything nearby that may be intruding into your robot's space a little bit. If you do all that, it should be shielded.

(Note: this is all my opinion, and I have no official rules or anything of that sort to back it up.)
