We could let them learn their lesson, but at what expense THIS YEAR. They learn to do better in next year's build season, but should their robot be crap for the rest of this year because a weld wasn't perfect or a bolt came loose? Should their alliance partners in Quals suffer for it too?
I conjecture that the same teams in question use a KOP frame to begin with. That frame is strong enough for the most part. It's the placement of the frame that worries me, and forcing teams to put their contact zones in alignment with each other helps me sleep better at night.
