I definately agree with this. It is extremely difficult to add during competition, but way easy to strip a bot. If they plan on being 120 pounds with a D bot, by the time those teams get to their A or B bot, they'll be much less, possibly even giving them an edge over other A's and B's. I am not saying it would be wise to strip a bot in competition I'm just saying it could end up helping in the end, if this proves true. But by the time World's roles around, I think the winning alliance will have all this under wraps. Many D's will do extremely well.
