Its also been the rule from the start. So its not like FIRST dropped it on us after shipping.

I think you're absolutely right.
To connect this to a different thread that discusses whats important to this game: The bot, The Driver, or THE STRATEGY. (

Descoring is a legitimate strategy that just happens to work very well in the elimination rounds.
FIRST has given us these rules to work with, so should we complain about them, or do what we can to win within them? I think the answer is obvious.
Keep in mind its not our job to write an interesting game - thats up to FIRST. For us, we have to take FIRST's game, and play it, and play it in such a way so that we can win (and if that happens to be winning 150-0, and then 1-0, so be it).
