The problem here is deeper. These issues persist on many FRC fields and this needs to change.
Ultimately the firmware and hardware we are given by FIRST needs to be built tougher and respond more reliably.
Everyone contributes far too much money and time to be met with faulty reliability on FIRSTs end.

This.
100% correct. These problems were occurring on other fields, at other competitions, and other years with this control system. Something needs to be done about the system, not the implementation. The system they have is the problem, not specifically how they went about handling Einstein (though that could have been improved too, it's not the root of the problem).
