No matter what the weight limit is, a large number of teams will *ALWAYS* have trouble making it

Cory is exactly right. If teams got 5 more pounds, then they'd just make things more robust and add more to it and in turn be 5 pounds over that limit. I'm sure there would be some teams who would act blind to the new limit and be over a bit and be ok, but there are many who would not and would want to use every single pound available. The weight problems would stay about the same, in my opinion. I believe it should stay at 130.
