While I dislike this decision, it's not because it's unfair. Unfortunately, FIRST is backing down in this case. This seems, to me at least, to set a rather bad precident. Given this year's experience, if there's a rule that teams (and not all, just a significant majority) just don't like, they will think that they can simply ignore it and FIRST will eventually change it. And I'm afraid at this point that FIRST will change it. Inconistensies in rulings are something that's not new, FIRST backing down is.
