This is true, the way I laid it out does break on minimum-length bumpers. (I certainly don't want to restrict designs any further by mandating longer bumpers!)
Suppose we handle it this way:
-All of your bumpers are your alliance color, except for a numbers patch not to exceed 12" in length.
-At least six inches on both sides of the numbers patch must be the alliance color. This six inches may continue on to adjacent bumpers.
Let's take, for example,
1501's 2010 robot. If that short side was not red (or blue, as the case may be), I imagine you'd still see enough colored bumper to be able to figure it out.
