So fix it, Dave. Nothing says that a robot can't do a lap with a trackball in Hybrid and then hurdle while still in Hybrid. The table is a summary, yes, but it does say that a hurdle in hybrid mode is 8 points. Nothing else says different. (<G11> has no restrictions on mode.)

I was stating my personal opinion that it should be (not is) worth more, for the simple reason that any team that can go all the way around while retrieving a trackball and then hurdle it before time runs out is deserving of an extra bonus.
