I thought they did it for the safety of the volunteers, staff and teams.

On a side note: I don't think your vex response makes any sense. Vex doesn't have any other competitions as far as I know. What's the problem with FIRST limiting you on the parts you use for the minibot? They do it every year in FRC in one way or another.

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.
