I think all of you have some very big misconceptions about FIRST. Winning the robot part of the competition is not about learning or doing unneccesary work. It works just like "winning" in industry. You are given a goal with some simple restrictions. That's it. No one really cares how you get it done, just the fact that you get it done. If I can make a website based on a free CMS and make a more functional, content-rich, and aesthetically pleasing website, why should it matter?

There are very few rules restricting what can go on the robot beyond safety rules and rules that limit the advantage that teams with very large resources have. I don't see how disallowing (or frowning upon) freely available tools, tools that are available to real web developers, makes any sense.
