If the information was just provided to, and retained by, FIRST then it would not be a problem. But the demographic and statistical information is provided to all the judges in addition to FIRST. Some (albeit certainly not all) of the judges have indicated that they have considered that information when making award decisions in the past. And that is the concern that many of us are having with providing this information.
