No change in the rules, just a clairification.

The Q&A answer was:
"Any vacuum/suction/fan system that alters the traction characteristics of the ROBOT would be considered a violation of Rule <R06>".
Other Q&A answer regarding dynamic wheel height expressly confirms that wheels that can be raised or lowered to change which wheel(s) bear the weight of the Robot do not violate <R06>.
So IMHO transferring mass from the trailer to Robot wheels via dynamic wheels would not be precluded by Rule 06. This, however, is academic as the design change you are calling a "clarification" would seem to precludes this approach.
