Easier competition to win? What? Why would FIRST want to do that?

I sincerely doubt it. More likely we will see the same kind of competitive play that is present in FRC.

Perhaps that statement is only a means of encouraging new participants to get involved. One of the goals of FIRST has always been growth, so it makes sense that they would want to see NEW participants involved.
