I see zero cause for alarm as this step is absolutely trivial.

There's still the potential for significant trouble. A representative for the team in question might easily say "Yes, we've been inspected, we're just fixing the robot." He might even be right, and the robot has indeed been inspected. But he might not know that the robot has not passed inspection, and the "fixing" might be required because of something that the inspection found not to be in compliance with the rules.

An alliance can still check to see whether or not any given robot has passed inspection. It's not that hard to find an authoritative answer. But it's not "absolutely trivial".
