Speed and energy consumption

Slow bots doing the same thing as fast bots should consume more energy (hardware power, not robot life) per battle IMHO because of longer CPU usage.

Usually, CPU is in one of two states, active or sleeping. Only sleeping state consumes less energy, and all bots, fast and slow, stay in active state all the time.

I don´t care if a bot is slow either. The way the article was updated, saying the slower the better, is what bothered me.
