That doesn't matter. What matters is what people _perceive_... which is
why non lego tools shouldn't be allowed. People who have more of a
computer background would _tend_ to develop better robots, and would
also tend towards using tools like NQC, and to less experienced people,
the competitive advantage that these people have which is actually
solely a result of their differences in personal background would
instead get focused towards the difference in which tools were used.
