We are using a "common sense" definition of what constitutes a projectile. The exact determination will be up to the robot inspectors and referees at the competition events. Below is an attempt to provide a formal definition:
"A projectile is any object, whether attached or not, that is
launched from the robot and continues moving away from the robot by its momentum, typically following a parabolic path as it falls to the surface of the playing field."
Note that something lanched at floor level, such that it never truely falls, but rolls or slids across the floor could still be considered a projectile.

The last paragraph seemingly restricts the use of ground-effect (hehe) projectiles.
