No, I don't believe future architectures for FRC are exactly FTC or VRC. I think there are definitely things to learn from those programs, but I don't think any architecture for FRC looks precisely like either of those programs. I suspect it may look like a hybrid of existing high school sports models and existing structures for robotics programs, provided "FRC in every high school" is a goal.

Also, by future architectures, I'm not really talking next five years, but next twenty or more. Not exactly practical, but fun to think about.
