Any return is more than minimal. The students on these teams deserve the best experience possible and to take that away because we think it would be too hard is just plain ludicrous. There have been ways shown and logical ideas put forth to do this at minimal costs to regionals/districts. Even if this fixes only 1 event a year, that is more than enough to add this to events.

And this is an old argument on CD but the field results is a main part of FIRST's mission, thus why it is call FIRST Robotics Competition not FIRST Robotics Event.
