Unless someone has a better argument than how seeing this makes you "feel", I think the evidence is pretty overwhelming that only good came of this.
I thought the original issue that inspired "cheesecake*" was zero items could be shared between teams?

How about that rule about what constitutes a robot - R1, I believe... can that be modified to limit full-blown redesigns? Or perhaps a weight limit on shared parts?

I had a small rebuttal written up regarding the zero-sum game, but Sean beat me to it more elegantly.. Remember that FRC is 3,000 teams, and the opinions expressed here do not necessarily reflect those of the masses.

*Can we get a cheesecake smilie to go with the dead horse?
