Reading the dictionary, the meaning of the word inoperable is
pretty clear. The GDC could have used the word broken if they
did not mean inoperable in the stronger sense that it conveys.
I think that one might reasonably reach a conclusion that a robot
is inoperable while it still can roll around on the field, depending on
the situation, but in this years game there are too many different
ways to contribute to a win for just a broken arm, or a ramp that
is just below 12 inches, to get a robot classified as inoperable.
