Re: 2015 Lessons Learned: The Positive
The new rules allowed a lot of new and unique designs, some totally out-of-the-box.
Teams could focus on precision rather than brute force, leading to more elegant designs and driving.
Using average scores in Qualifying helped make seeding more accurate (though I disagree with its use in Elim, also defense would make this difficult)
Wildcard rules good for many teams attending events with several "powerhouses", allows more good but not quite dominant teams to make WC.
