That's one of my points. That makes it exploitable. "I don't know, I think the drivetrain went out", or an excuse of that nature, makes it an accident.

This wouldn't be a tactic a team would take willy nilly. This is something that would be likely to happen towards the end of the qualifying rounds.

So, effectively, not counting the grey stacks until after the match has ended could be the root of the issue.
