I am sure many early stage teams today would get value from even assisting in the assembly of a kit of parts. This was why the senior mentor for my area is asking FIRST if we can teach a class in the summer with my robots so they can see this process for themselves. Not stuck on teaching it myself, just offering up parts I have without impact to FRC11/FRC193. I was hoping we could open it to anyone that could get there so we were being kind of formal.
Where I think your idea goes a step further is it seemed like you wanted to offer early play. At least in MAR we have the guts of a field without the field controls so if a venue was made available one could be the maverick and push an early stage build and play if we could just get the control system or adequate alternative.
On the scale of build a KOP robot or do nothing: I accept completely to build a KOP robot. Plus a slow build would be a great place to document cleanly.
