If you don't think it aligns with your way of inspiring people than I guess FRC isn't for you? Because somehow this just won't inspire any new people ever again?

So I'm going to reiterate this.
FIRST has every right to decide on their general direction on their own. If you don't like it than what will you do? You could help them make as good as it can be or sit back and gripe.
You can refuse to participate further as well. Those are some choices (not all?) you have the right now. But FIRST decided this is what the championship event they run for the competition they run should be like. So that's probably what they will be doing and they sure can if they want.
PS: I'm not (didn't?) say you
should quit I said that if it doesn't align with your philosophies then you don't
have to stay with the program and complain, though that too is an option (clearly).
