The division would be optional so that rookies who feel they can handle the big dogs could still compete in the normal four divisions.

Who would really opt in to that, though? Who wants to pay thousands and thousands of dollars to go to championships and then decide beforehand that they have no chance of winning? Obviously that's not what the championships are about, but I doubt - in fact I hope there are no teams in FRC with that mindset.
