It's self serving and arrogant - two things you DON'T want in an alliance partner, ever.

I also agree, and will add:
I don't want lying to become an accepted part of FIRST culture. I would like to be able to have an agreement with the other alliance so that if they say they are going to balance the Cooperitition bridge with us, they better actually make a serious effort to be at that ramp when we agreed. If there are going to be challenges of this sort in the future, we need to set the standard for what is acceptable this year so things like lying to the other teams does not become an accepted practice within FIRST.
