Re: Minibot Standardization (FRC 2011: Logomotion)
I like the way this is stated.
The rules seem to reward swapping minibots, in fact if you look at it, the only reason to use your own is if you think the ones that are offered won't perform.
Also, pls look at Captain Crunch above. Giving something a catchy name may help spread that word.
There are two audiences here: robot builders and MB builders. The highest value of a 'design standard' is to bridge the needs of both and encourage engineering cooperation.
If the MB builders propose some standards, them the robot builders have the opportunity to debate & respond.
(or for the cynical, just go back to the scoring arguments in sentence #2)
