If you will note from the linked posts in that thread, those Talons are shared between 2 teams. 9 speed controllers to a team is actually quite reasonable in any given year: 4 on drive, 3 for other motors that require variable speed, and 2 spares/extra motors because the Talons are at this point beta tested but haven't exactly gone through a full FRC season with lots of them out there. This year, that might even translate to 6 on drive, 2 for climbing, 1 spare/shooter.
