Going on to the EJD site and the GD site one can basically see that it appears the floor space of the EJD is in fact larger than the GD, by how much would depend on if they had the retractable seats extended or not in the EJD.
On another note, I personally think that this isn't truly that bad of a situation. It has its Pros and Cons, but why not give something a try before completely dismissing it. As a student of process and logistics engineering, I do agree that it provides at first glance somewhat of a logistical nightmare, but we don't even know yet how many of the Exhibit Halls FIRST is taking up in the Convention Center, so for all we know, there could be a whole lot more space in the pit area this year.
