For people who don't understand C, this could help them to actually have some autonomous code among other cool features that wouldn't have been possible before. True, it would be a bad thing to require the use of it for all FIRST teams, as many teams have programmers that are fully capable of coding in C, but I think it's shortsighted to blast something that you aren't familiar with.

Ultimately, used as another tool to help teams get off the ground faster, this thing could be great.
^^^ Totally in agreeance
