"In any given FRC season, with a limited build season, even a struggling, under-resourced team can have a shot against some of the best teams. Please don't change that."
Respectfully, you're wrong. Eliminating stop build doesn't make 254 any better. It would help us spend a little less money and would make competition less stressful since we could implement upgrades at home instead of at the event... But overall it's not going to make our robots any better whatsoever.

Is it going to make the robots better for the teams that can't afford a practice robot and currently don't get to drive at all before showing up at their first event? I don't see how you could possibly argue it wouldn't.

But that's not what this thread is about (it's about the poll a middle school student could have written better), so I'll limit myself to this one response.
