I think the 2003 game was far more entertaining to watch! I would rather have the game require dependence on alliance partners. That was the beauty of the 2001 game. Teamwork made you great.
Perhaps if stacks were illegal to knock down and you were required to have a stack to be eligible to win...then stacking would have been huge. I guess if the game was not head to head, stacking would have been huge too, but I prefer the crash and smash nature of the game. Without the violence, it is just high tech ballet.
2 out of 3 means more FINALS!!! and more finals are good finals (except in exams.) Sum of 2 scoring means that (as happened in the finals at Nationals) if one or both robots breaks or is disabled, then that team has a minute chance of winning. However Sum Of 2 scoring means less time and that is probably a big motivator for FIRST.
