Adam,

While EasyC may not limit you at all for FRC (I've never tried it, only done it the normal way), it seems to me that if one relied on it consistently, this might hamper development of actual programming skills. While this may not be of any concern if you just want to program something and get it done and over with, if you are seeking to develop these skills, it might be better to build from floor 0.
