I did misread your comments b4, I agree in the future there will be a need for something like local competitions break off and the like. But that does not make FIRST in itself elite, its still available to all.

You can have more teams depending on skill level and this may in the future be essential. Only the best teams move on to regionals and nationals.. just as in a varsity sport style. But as for right now.. I don't see that elitism has its place in FIRST, In the future, well thats another case.

In the future it may be almost nesc. other wise your going to have some of the choas that you described.
