This.

In 2012, I had to tell a student that the vision software they worked on was not allowed because the FTA wouldn't let us use it. Then, we were stupid enough to try vision again in 2013, thinking that the "bandwidth limit" (which doesn't work) would prevent the FTA from banning the dashboard, but no, the FTA said we weren't allowed to use our vision stuff yet again, but this time, because a robot on the field had stopped working "because we sabotaged their network connection". What really happened? The other teams battery fell out. Not our problem, but we still couldn't use vision. Vision is not a guaranteed ability for robots. Nor are dashboards, or any amount of communication.
