Not the OP, but this rule is relevant because if you plan to shoot without moving in autonomous, then your robot must be initially placed inside your alliance's LAUNCHPAD instead of anywhere along the wall. This further restricts the geometry of your shot and your initial placement options.

All legal starting configurations are within the LAUNCHPAD.

The LAUNCHPAD is just under 1/3rd of the entire field, including the entire alliance wall. This isn't a constraint at all.

Take another look at the labeled field areas...you will see that the Launchpad is bordered by the wall and thus your robot would indeed still be within the Launchpad, while touching the wall as required.

You might want to look at the drawings rather than the animation. The plexi only blocks a couple of inches of the goal.

And I just realized I was confusing LAUNCHPAD with KEY... I'll amend my original comment to reflect that while maintaining the history.

Seems Possible.
