I still dont think it will be an issue. The bump is going to have carpet on it (or tape or something similarly squish-able), and it wont be in a perfect square orientation (it will look more like a speed bump).
Even if the bot bottoms out it will tip to one side and the wheels still in contact with the ground will push it over.
Think back to 2005. Teams who designed their robot with a low ground clearance so they wouldn't get stuck in goals ended up stuck in them anyway.
