"That guy" happens to be one of the most well respected mentors in FIRST, who shares his designs so that EVERYONE (Your ingrateful self included) can have a chance to use them. He does this for the good of all FIRST teams, to close the gap between teams with lots of resources, and teams with fewer resources. The least you can do is thank him, and not mock and trivialize his work.
