I disagree. In Archimedes this year there were EASILY 10-15 more teams that had eliminations-caliber robots that weren't on any alliance for eliminations- and that's with every team picking their own backup robot. so that makes 32+15 or 47 teams in the division with eliminations-caliber robots.
47/100= 30/64-35.25/75
30-36 teams in the division with eliminations-worthy robots. That sounds just right to me.
