Perhaps the result of this would be seeing the expansion of unofficial scrimmage events into the competition season? If you want more time to practice and iterate, there would be nothing stopping you from getting a few local teams together to practice like teams already do in Week 0 events, but in the middle of the season.
Plus, a lot of iteration can be done just by observing other events through livestreams. Not an ideal solution, but I still think having equal (unlimited) access time is a FAR better equalizer, even for teams that do only get one event.
The great thing about autonomous mode is that it doesn't require any additional effort from anyone else on your team... (You could do that yourself...but I've noticed that people will usually offer to do it for you, rather than let the programmer touch power tools.) - jgannon [more]
