I think you are correct in that. When i started in FVC it was defined as an "interim" program. I don't know if FIRST knew at that point they were going to be moving away from VEX. With the introduction of the new FRC controller I'd have to think that something big, and not in their plans, happened. I have no information to back this statement up, just a hunch.
