Re: [FRC Blog] Stop Build Day Survey Results

The wording on the survey was not great, and any detailed survey like this is obviously trying to do a more nuanced evaluation than simply "eliminate or don't eliminate." One thing that strikes me as a statistician is that there is likely more motivation on the part of those favoring getting rid of stop build day. First because the motivation level for "change" events is generally higher than for "remain the same" events. So in a survey like this, I would bet that all other things being equal, the 1s are likely overrepresented compared to the 5s relative to the entire FRC population.
