Are they obvious? Not all protrusions into an opposing robot's frame perimeter are fouls.
With the March 4th game update, G28 changed: it now prohibits
initiating deliberate or damaging contact inside the frame perimeter of an opposing robot. If "the actions of the damaged robot are the catalyst for the damage", there's no foul.
I wasn't at this match, so I can't say whether this is the case here. I'm just throwing it out as something to consider.
