One simple rule change can fix it - E-stopping a robot allows another ball to enter the field. It's a huge penalty, no triple assist, so it's not likely to be abused, but it would let play continue.

Whole heatedly agree. I also would suggest a red card be issued for teams who intently try to prevent their own alliance from score.
