The point here isn't that it's rigorously impossible to do, it's that it's completely unfeasible. Of course, you can have one gearbox per wheel and actuate all your wheels at the start of the match. You'd be adding a boatload of silly complexity for essentially no benefit.
I just got a bit of an tick when it comes to people saying things are "impossible" when they mean "impractical in my opinion".

Carry on
