I'm not sure it's a step backwards. It adds visual representation of achievement or experience with the game, and I think it will add a cool look to the field. This could provide an understandable shorthand for people who haven't watched all season to appreciate the relative "power level" of the teams on the field.
College football does something similar by adding
helmet stickers for players who reach certain achievements throughout their playing career.
I don't mind FIRST going all in on a theme as long as it helps people understand action on the field, as opposed to FLL style themes that have little to no effect during their matches.
I think this is a much better execution of a game theme than the teaser trailer.
