Generally, yes, one robot shouldn't be able to force a penalty on another robot. BUT, you want an exception to that when BLUEBOT is in REDBOT's way. REDBOT should be able to force a penalty on BLUEBOT in order to provide a motive for BLUEBOT to get out of the way. If REDBOT wasn't able to make BLUEBOT get a penalty, BLUEBOT would have no reason to get out of REDBOT's key/alley. That's why they made G28 be the one exception to G44, just as a deterrent for disrupting the game flow.
