Certainly either way the LRI shouldn't be able to accidentally entrap teams into losing.
The rules already read like that. The red card is for participating in a match with an uninspected or a robot that has been modified so it is no longer in compliance with the rules & not reinspected should get red carded.

5.5.2.2 T7
Any ROBOT construction technique or element that is not in compliance with the ROBOT Rules must be rectified
before a ROBOT will be allowed to compete or continue competing.
T7 Covers inspected robots that become non-complaint. Bumpers falling off gets you disabled, not red carded.
