Why do the offical published match results have only the bare minimum amount of data?

I agree i would really like to see first publish more scores that they already track but just do not publish. Team 75 is a large team and we have an army in the stands recording data but i would still like to see more first data made available to us. This would open the door for a team to relay prepare a good strategy for events that are later in the season. I also think that it would be really interesting to see how people would analyze this data.

It looks like all of the data is there, so it's just a matter of writing a little script to grab the stuff from the twitter posts, parse and sort it, and spit out some nice spreadsheets. Has someone already done this?

I'm tempted to say FIRST shouldn't publish this data so that people don't try to scout with only OPR at a regional, but really, there's no reason not to make pre penalty scores available. While we're at it, how about alliance selections as well?
