I agree completely... But just dropping a tube in front of someone's lane might be enough to cause serious problems for them if they can't floor-load. (One could always drop a tube, then accidentally hit it in a side-ways-like manner... I'm not making any claims toward GP, or rules or anything -- but we've been burned before by what should have been illegal being allowed by the refs, and even more by not understanding what the rules actually were.)

All that aside, my actual point is this: If you can't pick up from the floor, you're not a top-tier robot. Period.
