While I agree that teams will need to insure their system still works even if there's Fuel in the way, I feel like that's not solely a characteristic of active systems. I'd argue that a lot of the passive Gear pockets I've seen might be more susceptible to imprecise alignment and spacing than some potential active intake systems.
