In 2012, if a ball went under the bridge all you had to do was drop the opposite side. In 2013, if your disc bounced out you could not throw the thing as fast as physically possible. I don't understand why teams are upset about this. It seems to me that everyone is a little grumpy because they spent six weeks on a project and it doesn't work as well as they wanted it to. But, the same problem happens in real life too...

Intent. Intent. Intent.
In all of those scenarios, FIRST intended those pieces to perform differently than they actually did. FIRST recognized that and changed the game piece to help with game play.
As far as whether or not it should be changed, once again, it depends on whether or not FIRST had intended for that bottom bar to serve as something that'll kick balls back onto the field.
