So long as the 'bump' didn't slow the climbing robot down, cause it to fall, or otherwise cause grief to its team I'm not sure there's a reason to call the bump consequential for this case. However, it would set a very dangerous precedent for referee calls if some teams realize that they can intentionally 'bump' the pyramid on the way by while a climb is happening. In retrospect, the ref probably made the best long-term decision without realizing it even though the interpretation of 'consequential' is in question.
Maybe I'll (or a certain community) should create a digest of the important ones for 'essential reading' both for teams and refs.
