These were my first thoughts as well. When people see this they're going to think this might actually be how FIRST and FRC is. This just further perpetuates incorrect stereotypes about our community and program to a wide audience.

Additionally, their description of the "mentor led" team seemed to reference some real life teams, which in my opinion is inappropriate and unacceptable.
