PS: I hope FIRST soon realizes the survey's results will be worse than useless. They will be harmful, not neutral or helpful.
Do you hope to contribute to the discussion or just $@#$@#$@#$@# on things other people post?

You state what is wrong and what is not the correct metric. What are the correct metrics then?

What are the two kinds of people in the world?

Sorry these amazing mentors want the FIRST Robotics Competition to be built around the notion of competition.
