What you stated right there is exactly what people are trying to say here.
This is not my opinion but here is what others are trying to get across..
You put 6 weeks into creating a magnificent robot that can score a few ringers and can lift 2 of your partners off the ground 4 inches.
You can score 30+ points every match...
This wooden box can now score 30 pts every match by doing NOTHING. Yes it is unfortunate that they were unable to secure enough help to make a more competitive machine, but they need to learn eventually.
What others are trying to express here is that this shouldnt be a strategy because it rewards teams that may not deserve it as much as others.
