Can the answer be both? Notice I said our "initial" filtering was based off drivetrain type aka. pit scouting. Our second filter was based on "accurate observations of how the drivetrains (and drivers) performed on the field." The primary filter made our second filter easier to perform.

Richard can talk more about how we implemented our second filter based on field performance, I don't understand half of how they do it!

That last line came across a little harshly, especially when earning your blue banners is affected by much more than just scouting accuracy. Good enough scouting is important, and pretty close to being necessary; but it is way far away from being sufficient.
Definitely agree, winning in FRC is a many-dimensional challenge.

On topics like scouting, with a wide range of opinions, voices and methods, we prefer to "steal from the best, invent the rest." We follow that motto in all aspects of our team's operations, and it's definitely worked out for us. YBBMV (Your Blue Banners May Vary)

PS. For 1678, "the best" almost always refers to 254 or 973. We copy them a lot.
