 But should we "discriminate" based on how long your team has been around? If you think about it, FIRST's goal is to inspire students, right?
...But students on rookie and second-year teams, if anything, are in greater need of being inspired.

Re: Flipping Rule
Consider the case of a low bar robot with a large intake/shooter that can be raised high so it can shoot over a defensive robot. When the shooter is low, the robot has a low CG and when it is up, the robot has a high CG and is susceptible to being tipped. A defensive robot tries to bump it to alter the shot in the hopes of making it miss. If the defensive robot continues to push the shooter, it is possible that the shooting robot may tip.
If the shooting robot is about to tip, why is it not incumbent upon that robot to LOWER its shooter to prevent the tip?
