If you didn't use the acronym, it would be "I think FIRST Robotics Competition is not a competition". That's like saying an ATM is not a machine! In a competition, at least 2 sides compete to determine who has competed better than the other, and therefore who has won.

I say if there are at least 2 opposing sides, each competing to win, then it is a competition.
