IMHO, the GDC made a hasty ruling, and instead of eating crow and retracting or changing it like they have in the past when such a thing happened (like the "no band saws in the pits" ruling), and correct it to the obvious and rational ruling, they are sticking with it and it's going to really cause a ton of problems at the early regionals.
All for nothing.

Stupid ruling? Hasty ruling? Not the correct or rational ruling?
... seems to me that we have been given a requirements specification list from our customer (rules from FIRST) that we need to comply with. Whether you agree with these requirements or not, you accepted them as a part of your terms so that you could compete and now that you've shipped your product and it doesn't comply you call the requirements stupid?
Doesn't make much sense to me. Seems your time would be better spend figuring out how to comply with the requirements and not bashing them.
