I'm all for iterating on systems to improve them but when you have things that don't work and things that do you need to prioritize utilization of resources. That being said, outsourcing this to a competition is a pretty good use of resources. It only costs FIRST some time writing requirements and reviewing results rather than spinning up a dev team.

But who knows, they might not ever use the results. They could have just had the problem description laying around from when they had their algorithm written.
