Is this interpretation correct?

If this is the case, it seems possible to me that a robot can be in contact with its own key while at the same time make contact with an opposing robot in its own alley. (There's only 59" separation between the alley and key at the minimum).
In this situation, who is assigned a penalty?? Both teams??
It would be based on who hit who. If Red Alliance on their Key hits Blue Alliance in their Alley, Red alliance is called for the foul. If Blue Alliance in their Alley hits Red Alliance in their Key, Blue alliance is called for the foul. It's whomever does the move first. At least that's my interpretation and this is a good question to pose to the GDC.
