But this sort of adjustment is very strictly against the rules, it was just another clever trick to work around the rules that were clarified as being illegal. We’ve had all sorts that are clearly against the intent of a rule while not always againstthe letterof the rule, and this is a big part of the fun with the engineering part of the sport. Taking that away and you lose a big part of the sport.
Only reason RB aren’t completely in the shit is it’s impossible to prove if they did actually use it. From the description, it seems possible to change it on the grid if you take the nose off and another cover. I would be surprised if they never used it tbh.

You should think of it this way. Why engineer something that can that can be adjusted from inside the cockpit, if you don’t intend to adjust it there.
