I know that rookie teams are fairly small, but it only takes one competent programmer to write all the code in teleop and (at least this year) write a successful autonomous. It takes much more than one person to machine the parts and assemble the robot. If a team can't get one competent programmer, there's something wrong with the recruitment efforts.
Currently, teams with great mechanical skills or great strategies dominate the competition. Why shouldn't teams with great programmers be rewarded as well?
