You have to ask yourself if it is worth the risk of failure. What would be the advantage of that, esp. with the amount of rookie teams that have registered this year? The GDC looks at everything from as many angles and perspectives as they can - and they weigh in factors that only their masterminds can weigh in on. If it is felt that the time has come for walking robots or something along that line, then the risk question has been answered, hasn't it?

P.S. It may seem that I am contradicting myself regarding never underestimating a rookie. I don't and I also don't underestimate veteran teams experiencing a brand spanking new concept in FRC but... again, I would weigh the risks.
