Finally, it isn't the board you pick, but how you use it. I suggest you pick the one that lets you iterate and experiment quickly and confidently.

Agreed. It is all about how you use the tools you have. We're doing development with the TK1 board now and it's a lot of fun but there are some drawbacks. Most of them have been outlined above (Be mindful of using X11 on it, it's not stable.).
The main thing is that you pick something and then stick with it until you've developed a solution. If you are new to FRC or to any of this then your best bet is using the code and examples that NI/WPI have made available to teams.
Don't get me wrong, if you want to try new things then do it and ask lots of questions too! Just be prepared for it not to always work out.
