I understand that as written, this is a grey area within the rule. The grey area was removed at LRI training this year (and is consistent with prior years). Conveniently, the same guidance that was provided at training was captured in the recent FRC Ask an Expert webcast on Robot Inspection located at

It is a lengthy video. The portion relevant to this conversation is at 35:10. I realize that this is not an actual rule, but I think it is only fair for the teams to know what guidance was given to all the LRI's. For this that are not aware, this training takes place at FIRST HQ with members of the GDC in the room. Consequentially, there isn't much room for me to have an opinion on this issue.

Fortunately it is only halfway through the build season and there is plenty of time to get a Q&A submitted.
