Striving to be the best in the world at something is a huge driver for us. Removing that goal (or adding more if you prefer looking at it that way) is demotivating.

If a team like 900 is this far down the road to operationalize a response to championsplit, then a lot of other teams may not be far behind. FIRST HQ claimed a primary purpose was to give more teams exposure to elite teams. What if those elite teams no longer want to bother to attend?
