Why would the GDC give such a potential advantage for auto set up to the Blue alliance? Or am I misinterpreting something?

I think you read it right, as it stands the GDC is helping out the underdog alliance in this case.
In real life (IE when you go to apply your engineering skills to tasks in industry) there will be constraints on all sorts of things - many of which may or may not be "fair" or even "intelligent". You must learn to either work around them or use them to your advantage - preferably a bit of both. - OScubed [more]
