You might well be right. But the only LRI that matters is the one at your event. They as always have the option of discussing that with Al or First. A few years ago, somebody thought that about using batteries for ballast. The confusion cost them in the eliminations.

It came up at one of my events before when a team decided to make a new set of bumpers at the event in addition to the ones they already had. I had no issue with it.

I wouldn't have a problem with it either, given the way the rules are currently written.
