Why Robots?

‎Reading through a recent thread, I noticed something. There seems to be a portion of people that really like FIRST (for the sake of argument we'll include Vex & other STEM engagement type robot competitions) to the exclusion of anything else. Why is that? What do you get out of this program that you can't get anywhere else? Is it the time constraints that limit you to really getting into just one thing? Or is there some deep rooted satisfaction you haven't been able to find elsewhere?
