I think there is an important point to be made in this sentence. Any team member, parent, sponsor, etc who has been to an event before probably has some understanding of the alliance selection process. The 'decline' is a very legitimate tool a team has at their disposal.
If you know the rules, educate the people around you! Don't ooohh and aahhh (or boo....) and simply let the process continue on. By making it a big deal, we're making it a bigger deal than it really is...
