This progression would severely impact the methods my team uses to generate interest in STEM and prepare team members for FRC season. I have no desire to help -- and, frankly, will be upset if FIRST rolls these changes out across all regions.

Y'all might celebrate FiM's "revolutionary" behavior, but taking actions that will potentially change the way programs operate across the board without soliciting input from those affected is condescending and problematic.

...and, I'll note, not terribly unlike FIRST HQ's own behavior recently.
