I think that FIRST is doing new teams a huge favor. I can see the arguement that it's too easy but I think that this is an unfair statement made by elder teams. It's the sort of idea that if I had to be beaten up to learn something then everyone else should too. But I see this as giving new teams an oppurtunity to actually build a decent robot. Will it teach them? Yes I think so and then next year they'll come back and they'll say, we can do it in this scripted language, now let's try and do it in C, let's see what happens. The way I see it First isn't ditching C, they're just giving an alternate for people that can't do it, YET.
