His second paragraph mentions the percentage of FRC, FTC, and FLL teams that make it to their respective World Championship/Festival. I don't know where he got his information on number of FLL teams, but last year (when he wrote it) there was around 19-20,000 FLL teams. This year there were about 21,000 teams, with about 84 spots at World Festival. (To my knowledge.)

My opinion is that all programs should remain in the same venue together, at the same time. This lets students (and others!) to see the other programs and what they do.
