Hmmmm, maybe return to some of the the previous rules that governed robot construction, give or take some tweaks different from the current tweaks?
Maybe, implement some suggestions I proposed in other similar discussions.
This is an old topic that is a magnet for specious arguments, and is a long dead horse; constantly rehashed here on CD by a tiny, egregiously-lopsided fraction of the total FRC participants.* I haven't spotted a single new idea or argument in this iteration of the conversation.**
Surely neither I nor any other proponents or opponents if SBD/etc.need to repeat what has already been said a zillion times before. Instead this entire thread should be just a collection of hyperlinks to past posts.
What the subject needs is some rigorous, properly-conducted research by an unbiased investigator(s),
advised by the people who created, and still guide, the program.
Doesn't that sound reasonable? It's hard to argue against asking for good science/engineering experiments; but it's easy to argue that this thread isn't going to turn into one.
