Well, not all teams have exactly the same resources. And we know the way the team alliances are going to be formed. The teams who already have the most resources are going to be the ones getting together leaving everyone else that much further behind. Why have any limitations at all? Why not let the rich teams spend as much as they like? There are already ways to get around the $3500 limit anyhow. Should the lesson of FIRST be that money is all it's about? Maybe life isn't fair but should the competition be made that lop sided?
