Correct. Previously, the low goal was scored when the ball passed the planes defined by the outer faces of the cubes. It was possible to shoot a ball through the side face of the cube and have it bounce back out, available to be scored again and again. This clarifies that the ball does not score the low goal until it passes through the wall, into the alliance station, where it can be recovered and placed on a pedestal.
