the TC has internally discussed this issue during the "Major Rule
Changes" phase. Although (in some cases) it might be an easy and
efficient option to keep existing vision hardware working, we decided
against a higher position of the mounting bar.
We rejected this option not for technical reasons but for safety
concerns. Letting scientist climb up shaky ladders for mounting things
is already hazardous enough with a height of 4m. Lifting the bar makes
it even more risky.
Best regards,
Tim
On behalf of the TC
