As I'm watching the Palmetto webcast, I'm inclined to read the blue bars (and the blue tower #) as "This is what the blue alliance has accomplished so far", since it's on the same side of the screen as the blue team numbers.

However, now that I've watched matches for a bit, I understand that the blue bars mean "strength of blue Outer Works, as done by the red alliance" - same with the tower.

Did anyone else get the same confusion at first, or am I just really bad at reading the display?
Now it makes sense. I was wondering how Blue had so few points after crossing so many defenses, and red had so many after just one. I thought they were just putting up dummy scores and graphics.

I can read it now, but the other way is more intuitive to me.
