I dont believe it anyway.
I don't agree. I have not done any real survey but I have know RCA judges to say they they don't and have not watched the video.

I think the RCA teams need to do a video and eventually they will get better at it just like teams get better a building robots. The videos produced this year, at least the sampling I've looked at, are substantially better than in the past.

Teams need to learn how to communicate. I've got a whole thesis on that subject.
