I've been interpreting these statements as "It's really nice we won't have to buy ~$1000 of new speed controllers because our old ones are still legal." I don't have any background with a situation where teams had to replace all their speed controllers in one year, but then I've only been in FRC since 2011, so maybe someone who has been around longer can shed a historical light on this.
