I think this is an unfair categorization. I was standing on the side of the field at the end of almost every match at a week 2 regional and saw every minibot that did not trigger the post. There were not that many of them and of them and it could not be shown that they did not hit a bolt or did not turn and reverse before pushing up the pad.
If someone has a really good first hand account of a minibot that definitely did not hit the bolt and definitely did not bounce off too fast and still did not get triggered, please speak up so that the cause can be investigated.
