So many teams could benefit from just doing that. It is so very important that everyone is sharing valid ideas.
As an FTC ref, please, please, please make sure that they do this. Having multiple people ensures that you have redundancies to catch ideas that go against the rules, especially for a new team. I've had even multi year veteran teams come up with issues that cause them to fail inspection, and which are usually written in bold in the front of the manual.
