Yet another disingenuous statement. The kitbot is not weak when properly constructed. Maybe it will not stand up to all abuse in it's default configuration. But it could certainly do so in most situations, and almost definitely in any situation with the addition of bumpers. All it takes is a couple feet of aluminum angle and you can stiffen it up even more.
