I don't think it's "reading too much into" a blog post to suggest that a picture with a set of buttons on it represents one set of buttons. There's one coach and one safety captain, and then one more button than people expect on a drive team.
It's late December, they know what happens when FIRSTers read blog posts. There's no way they would get one set of buttons and then go "oh, actually yeah, let's grab a sixth button from this second set, with the same team number, that will frame it better". Doesn't make a lick of sense.

Only Championship buttons are labeled with the name of the event on them. Every other button is generic, and can be re-used from event to event. At least since 2009.
