^That.

I think the rather obvious conclusion that more matches--with the ability to improve between/during each event--makes for more competitive robots is, well, rather obvious.

Districts allow teams more matches and more time to work on their robots. If that *doesn't* improve teams, then teams are doing something wrong!
