Interesting... I might say that a team who shows up completely ready to go has squandered the last few hours they had to work on their robot...

Our team, for instance, nearly always shows up ready for practice, but not ready to inspect. We often still have to put finishing touches on, like installing bumpers, signage, drilling speed holes, etc. Why waste time during the build season doing these things if I can do them on practice day (and still be able to practice)?
