67's 2005 machine definitely had it, as did 312's 2006 machine (the latter heavily influenced by the former). the drive configuration of the simswerve would also lend itself to the same maneuverability of the 4 wheel independent. i think what is notable about the 47 bots' modules is not the fact that they are independently steered, but rather the fact that there are 4 of them that were independently steered.
