From the point of view of educating young people about the real world, I believe that alliances are a good vehicle. In fact, to further that goal, I am in favor of teams being given a lot more time to negotiate with their allys, rather than having two minutes to try to come up with a plan. This would encourage the teams to think much more about their skills as collaborators. Teams that were better at communicating their ideas and brainstorming solutions would have a distinct edge over those that simply flew by the seat of their pants. I think that this would highlight a dimension of FIRST that distinguishes it from athletic competition, i.e., it's not just about winning, it's about the quality of the experience and expanding our skills and knowledge.
