[FTC]: Rev 6 of Game Manual Changes Rules on Plastic and Aluminum Sheets

Just noticed that Rev 6 of Game Manual has been posted. Rules about plastic and aluminum sheets have been changed. One of my teams will have to rebuild a significant component. Three different forum answers explicitly said their design was OK (Other Parts and Materials: #3, #11, & #22). They used two pieces of plastic 12.5 x 16 to create a cylinder. But the two pieces had to be cut from two different 24x24 sheets. Fix will be to cut each piece in half 12.5 x 8, but at this late date with the whole robot already together this will be major rework. Any one else in this kind of jam?
