I wouldn't call it a "tainted" win. Everyone on that field had the same issue to one degree or another.

I look at it as, "Who has the best alliance", with an unannounced--and unplanned-for--factor contributing to that called, "Who maintains connection the best".

I also see it as, thanks to all the Einstein teams for finally calling FIRST's full, undivided attention to an issue that has been plaguing them for a while.

And I think the SPAM Raider Squad is one of the best sets of teams to come together and play the game. Comm issues or no comm issues.
