It may be open source, but it also has far fewer moving parts to deal with.
Cheesy Arena handles most of this stuff and was designed around using readily available hardware to display things such as team numbers. It even improves upon the game specific elements like the hot goal lights, which were actually timed correctly in Cheesy Arena.
