After considering things for a while, I now believe that this declaration from the GDC is not supported by reality. The chassis was perhaps custom-made for a pre-2008 competition, but I'm pretty sure it was already a commercially available product by the time the 2008 Kit of Parts was put together.

As the sole source of what is and is not "by the book", however, the GDC needs no support from reality in order for what it says to be law. Instead of chewing on the subject and complaining about the taste, let's just swallow it and move on.
