What does "they" refer to? Policy teams. What aren't these debaters? Policy teams. And policy teams go off-topic just as much as non-policy teams.

Have you ever seen a "standard" CX round? Do you even know what CX debate is? Since you're asking what a K is I'm guessing the answer to both is no.

Gosh I wonder where this unearned sense of superiority stems from.
