Yes, exactly - some models have to be just small step behind Technic. It will
allow people to easy shift from "just Technic" to robotics. Currently, there are
too large gap between Technic and Mindstorm, I think. If filled, it will allow
easier learning.

And when one got enough of experience, he can purchase "PC connector kit" and
start developing its own programs. So we can expect that more "excellent
roboticists" will grow because of easier self-education.
