I think you've summarised what I disliked about modern Battlebots quite well :P That said I'd replace the third point with this:

Cut Battles and small Rumbles - They both concern battles but they feature a problem that really annoys me. For cut battles, it's a problem Extreme 2 and Series 2 faced where by we don't see the full fight but instead are treated to highlights which kinda ruins the fun of watching a show about robots battling. Speaking of lacking in departments, the rumbles are a joke! I don't know whether it's a smaller arena than before or they're paranoid about something but how come it took over three seasons to get a rumble with more than three robots?! How is it that the UK was able to have a 10 way rumble PLUS 3 House Robots functioning at the same time...but the "big bad Americans" can't? They had three way melees they called "rumbles" despite the fact they also had qualifiers which were...three way melees...are they still scared of what happened with Nightmare, a ONE time moment, that they refuse to do something remotely entertaining What's worse is that the rumbles pretty much all suck.

Of course my second a first are the same as Crash Bash's so...
