There are so many sayings/ideas that would disagree. The straw that broke the camels back. The butterfly effect. Calculus in general. I'm not saying that such a match has occurred for sure. Just saying you shouldn't be surprised if it did. If FIRST is around long enough, there will be a match where this happens at some point. Never underestimate the impact small changes can make on the big picture. They tend to make a difference at some point.
