Are these tanks legal?

I do not know Allens background when it comes to Pneumatics, but I do know mine as 7 years as a manufacturing engineer with pneumatic devices.

First off -- when someone asks what the failure mode is, explaining it to them is not fearmongering.
Second -- When people state that they will not use, or will only use under specific criterion, an object due to safety reasons that is their opinion, justified or not, and again not fearmongering.

I know what the failure mode is. I have seen the failure mode UP CLOSE. When I say I'm lucky to be here, I mean it.

FIRST has chosen to make these legal, that is their choice. My decision to put a box around them is an additional safety feature that I CHOOSE to implement as a safety for the audience and to protect the volumes from "robot-to-robot interaction".

If you CHOOSE to ignore my advice, that is your choice. I hope that you never see the repercussions of that choice.
