Here's what I imagine could happen to the poor referees. A team is about to score and win, but a defense bot knocks the ball out of the robot by colliding with it, which "inhibits" them from scoring. After the match, the team will come up to the question box, say that we were "inhibited" because a robot came into contact with us more than one time (satisfying the repeated or high-speed part), and that it should be considered ramming if it was violent enough to knock the ball loose. The ref has to make the call if the robot was being "rammed" or not to decide the technical foul, which isn't an easy decision, especially if it's the final on Einstein...
