I didn't check
(was a little busy Saturday) but I'm willing to guess there are other alliances who had not yet played their 4th bot when reaching Einstein.
Of course they 'get' to claim they reached Einstein. They put in more work in one day than I think I've ever seen in my now 15+ years as a FIRST observer.
They were on our alliance. Even if just for that one day, we're a family.
We win and lose as a unit.
