Also, I agree with Al's reasoning regarding the comparable example of robot sizing.
Installing the spare collar on the spare motor makes a spare assembly. This is a one-for-one exchange for the same function.

I agree with Al, the weight you play at is the weight you should weigh at. If you can play in more than one configuration, you must weight less than 130lbs in all configurations.
