No one likes hearing what they do is futile or worthless, especially when compared to
this other thing (even if it is robots). Student athletes work just as hard as, if not harder than, robotics kids, and it kind of stinks to have someone belittle your hours of dedication/passion. Also, as already mentioned, not every sport or team is bloodthirsty with ref-bemoaning spectators (and I don't think FIRSTers are actually thaaat much better about refs).
