If you like, you can observe this behavior for yourself on the field--the robots will be disabled for a variable period of time directly after autonomous, regardless of the referee's current state. The way the system is designed, even if they signal a go-ahead for operator control immediately, that enable signal still has to propogate to the actual arena controllers and there will be a short disable pulse.
