If you don't like the product because of principles, then don't do a minibot on principle.

Karthik, Cory, if I didn't respect you two so much for your technical prowess and general logical GP practices I would be hard pressed to hold back the tirade I could type right now.
I'd be pissed if we had to use vex, mindstorms, an arduino, anything. Let teams decide what they want to use.

They made a substantial game play decision for political reasons, that's immature.
