By whom?
If you are the proverbial customer, you defined what the software must do and be. If adapting to unspecified conditions wasn't in your specification, the software isn't a failure.
If you aren't my customer, your opinion is interesting, but not particularly relevant or motivating, until it can be linked to something I or my customer require.
My guess is that a game or challenge that (mostly) matches what FRC is, instead of what someone says FRC should be, will have greater success.
On the other hand, anything that is both fun and easy to participate in stands a good chance of succeeding.
