I'd guess that FIRST will not try to inspect balls for damage to surface finish, scuffs, scratches, and so forth. Between matches they may try to replace balls that have chunks missing.

Generally, has GDC has expected teams to design gamepiece interaction mechanisms that are robust enough to deal will minor variations in gamepieces. <G20> doesn't explicitly mention balls -- that is probably not an omission by the GDC.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
