Hmm, so we could take a mechanical pit crew to the actual competition venue, while the programmers go to Starbucks and fix all the software problems from there?

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.
