I was commenting more from the perspective that there seems to be an irrational hatred of OPR among some veteran members of the FRC community, and that those people might be against a metric like OPR controlling divisions.

I agree, opr is often not well received, and understandably so. It's not the best, or most accurate metric, but it's better than whatever they currently use and arguably the best option that can be used to measure every single team in frc since I doubt we can get real scouting data on every single team.
