An analogy would be that my body doesn't have a vital organ, it has vital organs.

The question could have been formed better. The point was to question whether FIRST staffers (many of whom seem to be ill-informed about FRC teams and competitions) or actual FIRST teams should be determining the direction of organization. The post I was responding to implied it should be the staffers at FIRST headquarters, and that we should just go along with what they decide.
