If you are touching a robot that is on the grating, you "become part of" that robot. Since they are touching the grating, you do not receive the 25 points.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

I think you might be, but maybe you can show which rule supports that. Here is the rule as in the manual:

SC11 Each robot touching only the top of the center platform at the end of the match is worth
25 points. You are not fully on top of the platform if any part of a robot is touching any
part of:
· The ramp;
· The field;
· The top or outside of the platform/ramp structure sidewalls;
· Both of the inside platform/ramp structure sidewalls at the same time.

I'm not sure where the the part about touching other robots, or breaking the plane is in the rules.
