I get what you mean, but I think you're in the wrong when you say "rivalries don't exist".

I think rivalries in FIRST are handled in a slightly more light-hearted manner in that, they are not rivalries per say, but just close teams who would love to butt heads.

I think that any time a powerhouse faces off against another powerhouse, it's sort of like two rivals going at each other. They both want it bad, and each team gets those "bragging" rights. But, after it's all over, everyone comes down on both feet, and no one feels worse for the wear.

If your definition of rivalry is where teams have die-hard fans, insults are endless, and the community is divided among the colors of their shirts, then perhaps rivalries aren't FIRST.
