I don't know what this question means.
IRI judges do what they want... they are experienced at being IRI judges or they have experience as FIRST team members. FIRST has no influence on IRI judges.
Your question may be best answered by this award:
In 2001, the IRI spirit award was awarded to a team who travelled all the way from WPI (team 190) with 4 team members. They competed well and had a good time at the event. However, they were not a team who constantly cheered and danced. The IRI judges appreciated their "spirit" to compete and awarded them the Spirit award for making the effort to come all the way from Mass. to play.
So... the awards are on IRI merits.
