If it seems intentional that they are incurring penalties talk to the field officials about it.

Agreed. E-stopping (or trying to e-stop) another team's robot seems to me like a nuclear option.
I know teams like to win, but common courtesy is another thing.
That being said, I sincerely doubt anyone would actually do this-- aside from the moral aspect, it
may also be a tad difficult to get at your parters' e-stop buttons, considering they aren't in your alliance station.
