In a thread a few weeks back, Dave Lavery acknowledged that it's pretty likely that the scoring table will be wiped out by a trackball at least once this season, and if I know anything about Dave, I'd say he's secretly looking forward to it. FIRST has known about this from day one, which is why the guardrails are higher than in years past. There are some inherent hazards, but like you said, you can't bubble-wrap everything. It's gonna be a fun season... I'm looking forward to seeing a lot of very creative bots (and maybe a few panicking FTAs).
