Will The GDC Change Climb Points?!?

The GDC inserted a clause that gives them the ability to modify climb points.

"As competition at the FIRST Championship is typically different from that during the competition season, FIRST may alter the value of CLIMBING at the FIRST Championship by up to ten (10) points per Level."

I Personally really hope that they will increase the 30 point level to 40 points. This would make each progression 2x the level below. The problem is that so many people have become efficient at 10 point climbs the 30 point climb is not worth as much as it was earlier on.

10
20
40

This change would make the competition even more competitive at champs and make alliance selections more interesting as well. A good amount of 30 point climbers have already qualified for champs by winning regionals as 3rd pics. At the FIRST Championship alliance selection will be different as their are more teams and a large number of great teams. As the scoring stands right now I do not think that many 30 point climbers will be picked.

I am very interested what the FIRST community at large thinks. Perhaps I am really off base here or slightly biased because we have a robot capable of a 30 point hang.
