Hear hear! Jeff is right. I don't think there's a real need to compile the rules by eliminating any unnecessary trim, since there really isn't. I suppose if you've been in competition since the dawn of FIRST, you might be able to skip a FEW rules in the robot section regarding things such as the re-use of previous robots (that's a no-no). But if you REALLY want to trim down your manual reading, and you know somebody else on your team is going to read the whole manual, read sections 7 and 8 thoroughly, seeing as that's where the rules regarding A) the game and B) the requirements of your robot, are listed.
