Re: Limitations too far?
Should innovation and new challenges be sacrificed so that the teams who compete successfully in the robot competition be able to continue competing successfully in robot competitions because the basics remain familiar or the same? Is it important that veterans stay within a certain comfort zone? Is that what engineers do? Is that what scientists do? Is that why there are continued breakthroughs in science and new technologies? Why do people keep buying the latest in cell phones? To call someone? Or, to be able to use new features like submitting bar codes for searches?
I get very confused when we pick and choose what is ok and what is not ok in this community that places value on inspiration, innovation, creativity, engineering, and challenge. Esp. the first few days after Kickoff for the new season.
