What I'm trying to say is, if FIRST actively promoted the position, maybe more people would study the game and try to fill the position.
I'm sure approval would be needed. (I've heard what happens if approval doesn't happen.)

But I would also suspect that the best move would be to do a pilot, with the existing groups at their "home" event areas. If it enhances the experience, then it's time to train others to do it--see also, offseason events--and roll it out as an option at all events (similar to early pit setup this last year--events could opt NOT to have it).
