Our robots have never had props on them and I'm always more than a foot away from them while they are on unless they are propped up on blocks.

I can't say I understand why your blatant disregard for the safety advice posted by members with experience with these systems means that I should trust your robot to be safe.

If this robot manages to pass inspection with the safety cage shown in those pictures, I will be instructing my team to at the very least put on safety glasses in the stands every time your robot is on the field.
