Next year we will have 600 teams at champs representing about 3000 teams. If all high schools had a team there would be 30000 just in the US. How would a 6000 team world championship work.
I do agree that if anyone could pull it off it would be FIRST- a unified organization run by engineers.
There are ways to do it but if we get to the point where there are so many teams, it makes it extremely difficult to have a world championship that includes both the elite teams and the rookie/lower tier teams.

I also don't see how increasing the build season length would increase growth, perhaps you could explain this to me?

I think he's talking about increasing the length of competition season which would be necessary and has already been happening as FRC grows.
