I do agree with you and Bongle that this is the best data we have, but it simply isn't good enough to make any conclusive statements.

This data isn't the proof, the proof is the fact that G14 penalizes teams who have done nothing wrong. Why should my team be penalized for the actions of my alliance partner the match before?


This shows the upper bound of the scale of this problem.

<G14> is, by far, the single worst rule written since I've been involved with FIRST. There is no justification for this abomination of a rule.
