Making sure your opponent keeps its distance from you while you are in your "protected area", even if that means intentionally touching them while in your own key is fair game in my opinion. If a defense bot chooses to follow the robot that is chasing after a ball in its own lane vs. the one that is chasing after a ball in the far corner is also fair game, in my opinion.
I completely agree with everything in this quote. I hope it gets called that way.
