You forgot the West Coast "nightmare" of the Bionic Poofs (60/254) in 2004, which gave way to the 254/968 collaboration that has sent teams to Einstein three times (2005, 2006, 2008).

Without the precedent set by the Bionic Poofs, the Triplets might not have happened. When it did, the ground rules were already laid.
