This is where it breaks down. We had a great idea to climb to level 3 very quickly and easily. After doing some CAD we learned that the problem was that the mechanism interferes with the box on the top of the pyramid while getting to level 3. Level 2 was achievable, but level 3 became a mess.

We SPECIFICALLY had to design around this problem to solve it. I agree with you, it's a real concern and I think some teams might be surprised if they don't address it.
