Yes, this seemed to me to be an odd answer to that question.
Is that part still available?
Is is available from one of the preferred suppliers?
Does it cost < $100?
If any of the above questions are answered "no" (and it looks to me like they are all "no"), then where does FIRST's answer to that question leave rookie teams?
Over the weekend I tried to submit clear questions that should resolve some of the discussions we've been seeing about what parts have to be in the $100/$200 limit, and in what cases the preferred suppliers have to offer the part. No response to those yet though.
