Good catch, I've added those selection points. I'll ask Mitchell to look at this again to figure out why they were missed. I found a few more teams with missed selection points and tried to correct them also.

The SPO metric uses calculated offense (OPR) instead of qualification points. It neglects awards. It also neglects defense. As discussed earlier, the IRI PC has a tough job selecting invitees -- not one I would like to automate.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
