Your comment I believe is why this practice will never go away. For some teams its a celebrated and well-rehearsed routine. For many people new to FIRST, they see this practice happening and assume its just the way its done.

Does it get people out of the way? Yeah, probably.
Is it sometimes so over the top that it causes distractions and irritation? You bet.

There's definitely a compromise somewhere in there.
