I assume you mean finalist? Wouldn't the champion be the same irregardless? That said, I think this model probably needs to tested before FIRST would adopt it. It's a pretty large change strategically, as scouting teams now need information on 3 other alliances, rather than one. I'd imagine that would create even more stress in what is already a stressful time.
That said, I think it would make for a more interesting final field, because their always seems to be unexciting matches on Einstein, and this way we should get more even (and thus more exciting) matches.
So, would an off season be willing to test this with their final four? IRI would've been a very interesting trial of this.
