My argument had nothing to do with the people participating in the competition and telling them what they should or shouldn't do.
All I stated was that FRC robots require lots of resources to make, are good for macro-level inspiration, but might not be as efficient in terms of micro-inspiration per resource than other programs. You suggested the same, use other programs and materials...

If we agree that FRC and these other programs have separate roles in this strategy, then lets not try to make FRC just like all these other competitions. Let it become something that is good at macro-inspiration and let the other programs and materials be used for micro-inspiration.
