It would be great if BBO would consider adding a new ACBL-sanctioned robot event: Robot pairs. GIB would continue to play E/W while a human team would register to play N/S.

That won't really work, the GiB pair will assume N/S will play the gib system, it doesn't know how to defend anything else. Therefore, pairs playing precision or any non-standard conventions will have a huge advantage.

It would also be way too easy for a NS pair to cheat and not get caught.
