Q&A164

Again, I am going to live by the rules that FIRST has put out, but Q&A164 seems unreasonable.
Essentially, stock parts from prior years are useless. I realize that FIRST is trying to level the playing field but this seems a silly waste of money.
Other thoughts.

Q164. We have parts for the robot, such as bearings from previous years that are
in the Small Parts Catalog. May we list these with a cost from the catalog
as parts used on the robot? Would we have to order the parts even
though we have them on hand?
A164. You should purchase parts you wish to use on this year’s robot from
Small Parts. The reason for using the catalog is to insure that all teams
have a "level playing field" with regard to selection of parts as well as lead
time in securing parts.
