Engineers aren't around to design mechanical systems, or to create software packages. Engineers exist to solve problems. High level problem solving is still problem solving, isn't it?

That is true. I just don't want to be confined to only that. Of course students won't be engineers out of high school. I also understand that there are many different view points and situations with different teams. I just think FIRST should at least keep the options open when it comes to programming. I have no problem with switching to a new system, but I also am very afraid of the programming becoming uninteresting, per se. Then again, maybe I'm just getting overly anxious and there is nothing to really get worried about. Time will tell (hopefully)
