For example here in Indy you Vex has a big advantage over FTC because a Vex team has so many choices for events while an FTC team has few. That may be flipped in other areas.

This is an excellent point!
Hawaii is predominantly VEX with over 200 teams in both middle and high school.
FRC in Hawaii has almost 30 teams. I'm not sure about FTC, but we have very few teams vs. VEX.
During the Fall, you can find either a VEX IQ/VEX event every weekend here.
Having the opportunity to play in tournaments and often, makes it much more enticing for kids to get involved with one program vs. the other.
