Thanks for cutting to the chase, Pete. As you point out, the intent is clear. And competition officials will be looking for incorrect batteries in and around robots that are near the field. Inspectors will be looking at teams' pneumatics charging procedures in the pits.

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.
