Rope Exchange

[AndyBare]

Because A DRIVE TEAM may elect to switch one of the ROPES on their AIRSHIP for their own ROPE AND Once the DRIVE TEAM has installed their ROPE on the AIRSHIP, it is part of the FIELD
My question is: Can a team exchange their rope for one of their alliance members ropes, since once placed it qualifies as both a field element, and a ROPE on their AIRSHIP

If so,

Team A exchanges TEAM A ROPE for STOCK ROPE, making TEAM A ROPE a field element, and holds STOCK ROPE
Team B exchanges TEAM B ROPE for Team A ROPE, making TEAM B ROPE a field element, and holds TEAM A ROPE
Team C chooses not to exchange ropes with the airship, and holds TEAM C ROPE

Now, the airship has Team B's rope, and two stock ropes.

At the end of the match, because no order of rope removal is specified, Team A exchanges their STOCK ROPE for the TEAM B ROPE, walking off the field with it. Team B then exchanges their TEAM A ROPE with the STOCK ROPE that is now hanging from the airship. Team A can then leave the field with a stock FRC rope, and because their Team B rope is now a field element, it can stay attached to the field.

Per R08. ...Note that a Team provided ROPE may be removed from the FIELD and is no longer considered a FIELD element once removed from the DAVIT

The rules never specify that the rope must be removed, unless I'm missing something.

What are your thoughts?
