If auto had a reasonable challenge mechanically like this year but with more to be challenged by for programming such as a more precise area of the field the robot must go ,climb something or even mini bot I think it would be necessary.
What if FIRST was to extend this, but also changed the rules where human players were part of the autonomous also?
