New rule Clarification changes plans

[Sachiel7]

I think FIRST needs to clarify it more then, because my interpretation of what they're saying is "if you're not using it as a shooter, it's fine". I would assume shooting would be more classified for the center goal. As per the rules, the center goal is the only goal that requires balls to be "shot" into, so FIRST calling it a "shooter" in my mind references more the center goals.
Perhaps I'm just understanding it wrong.
How is it a shooting mechanism if it slowly releases balls?
I think FIRST needs to further clarify this and possibly reconsider to allow teams who aren't pummeling balls out at 12 m/s to dump this way. Teams have safely used these mechanisms in the past, why stop a team from doing so if they're releasing them at a safe speed?
I seriously think FIRST should make a minimum velocity to classify a device as a shooter. If it's fast enough, it must abide by the shooted design rules. If it's under, it falls under the normal rules for robot components.
Just my $.02
edit: Unless you're referencing another Q&A post, they didn't say anything about "no matter the speed of the ball".
