Gary,
I understand you logic but i think the answer would be that it is not legal. While Spam's intent is GP i am looking at this from an overall FIRST perspective. Lets say i prototype a new super transmission in the off season and test it so that it works perfectly. Now i am not allowed to use it because it wasn't build during the season but we are mentoring a rookie team and now find it legal to give our off season transmission to them, thus giving them an advantage of a tested transmission that they didn't have to build.

So now that that gets out a few teams get together and build transmissions in the off season and just trade each other for them the day after kickoff. How would this be fair.

In a perfect world where everyone followed the rules to the letter and had good intentions like you do i would say it is fine but unfortunately i can see that if teams start this trend it will only go south fast.
