Having division fields separated by a whole FRC field will only make people need to walk back and forth a lot, and be stuck sitting behind FRC teams who can afford to stay put (not trying to complain, just pointing out that it does not really make sense. Also, FTC currently has 1 scoring table per division, and one set of interconnected field electronics. Dividing it around an FRC field would make that very difficult. Also, this would save very little space other than the gap between FTC and Curie (I think), as the fields would not get any smaller, and they are pretty compact as they are.
I don't think you fully understand what I'm saying. If we had more FRC divisions, we could team up an FTC division with an FRC division. So two FTC fields (one division) for an FRC division. The FTC fields would be just as far as they are now. And the FTC teams could stay put because they only play on that field. but instead of putting all FTC fields together, you spread out the divisions among FRC divisions. so FTC would be set up just like FRC, with their divisions separated. This also promotes interaction between the two programs.
