There's a reason for this rule and it's quite simple really: they won't be able to guarantee your robot is actually at the competition if they give you until Tuesday to ship. Think of it this way, the shipper has to take it to the drayage yard, that will take at least a day if not longer. Then they have to move the robot from the drayage yard to the actual competition which will take even longer. It's physically not possible to allow teams to have their robot those three extra-days.
