To get a minumum length of wire you need two things:-
1. A minimum stack length.
2. A minimum web width.
Never said it wasn't the same length in BRCA and ROAR. BUT if you state the rules by giving a minimum web width, a minimum stack length and a minimum length of wire, then you will rule out motors that passed ROAR because they had the proper length of wire but don't meet the minimum web width (motors that would use a long stack combined with a thin web for example) stated by the BRCA.
