Why submit a total of five hard-copies if the minimum requirement is either an electronic submission or an original hard copy plus two copies?
If you submit via grants.gov you do not need to provide any hardcopy. For those who might choose hardcopy submissions, the additional copies allow each member of the selection panel to have their own copy of each application, copied, bound, tabbed, and otherwise prepared in the way the applicant prefers to prepare it rather than a rely on basic photocopies that we prepare.
