Nope, I'll agree with Andrew. This is the true cost of FRC in general. It is a massively expensive program that gives a HUGE amount of value assuming you can invest the time, people, and money. On the low end, the same amount of investment in VRC or FTC give a much higher return than it would in FRC.

And like I said, this difference does NOT mean that his team needs to abandon FRC. It just means that they will need to scale up their investment to a level similar to other FRC teams.
