While that is a nice selling point, that's mostly what it is - just marketing. With withholding allowances and second robots, plenty of teams keep right on building and iterating past bag & tag. Replace six weeks with eight or ten and it's no less impressive to a potential sponsor or mentor. I fear that the 6 week selling point has been engrained in FRC's culture for so long now that it's basically a non-starter for discussion.
