FIRST shouldn't try and force a program on us that we don't want.

What do you mean, a program we don't want? FTC is a part of who we are as a program, they are the origins of good FRC members. And if you didn't know, FTC, FLL, and FRC are ALWAYS related. The biggest clues you can get before kick-off aren't those we're given, but the ones you can get by observing the other two's challenges and preparing for it appropriately.
Plus, they're not forcing anything on us, they actually gave us a really easy way to earn points. They gave us a simple challenge, a base model for how to rise to it, and FREE kits of simple parts to put it together.
If you don't like it, just don't use it.
