Let's think twice about this. A shortage of seeding points would get in the way of becoming an Alliance Captain; but it should not have interfered with a good team_plus_robot being drafted.
High seeding points are certainly not the only way to join a strong elimination round alliance.

This whole experience, the entirety of what FIRST represents and promotes, is about inspiring individuals to make something more of themselves and creating a better world; when you consider this, our individual victories seem meaningless. - Dillon Compton [more]
