Inspectors sometimes make mistakes due to oversight or incomplete understanding of the rules. I've done it, and was lucky to have someone around who caught what I missed.

Gluing components to the battery is not allowed per <R65>. Similar rules have disallowed this in previous years also.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
