This goes back to the needing canned algorithms thing.

I don't think anybody here is saying that FIRST should require all matches to be fully autonomous. Some people, like me, think that autonomous mode should be made at least as important to the match as teleop. Right now, you hardly need any autonomous at all; if your robot is mechanically well-built and well-designed, you're going to win the match.
