Mr. Line,

I believe this would trend towards a lot of complaining about FIRST is suppose to be an engineering challenge why are they limiting us. I believe that COTS items will catch up quickly in the drivetrain race. This to me is one of the reasons why FRC introduced more motors, to reward innovation and the challenge of not having enough weight/time to integrate all the motors you have. That being said I myself do not take issue with the proposal if FIRST sets a rule like this, the teams must follow the rules on allowable drivetrain motors. Overall, I don't think this really makes anyone less or more competitive.
