I'm not sure you properly understood my post. He asked if we would take the risk of selecting a team that had been broken or DQed in one or more quals matches. My response was that we would be willing to take that risk, but not without further investigation to determine if the problem was likely to crop again.
EDIT: Exactly what Eric said. If your team had been at my event and your explanation for your red cards was that you hung from the wrong side of the tower, and explained that you had changed driver's since then I would ask when the change was made. I would then go back to our data and look at the matches after the change. If you said that you still had the same driver, honestly you would be crossed off the list.
Similarly, a robot that stopped running in a match, and can clearly explain what the issue was and that they fixed it will remain on our list. A team that says they have no idea what broke, but unplugging some random cables and plugging them back in fixed might be moved down or crossed off.
