I'm trying to think through this as well. Any chance we can attempt to offer the GDC some help here?

For instance, does G24 even need to exist? Why can't putting a robot on the field that willfully employs an anti-R3b strategy just result in a DQ? (I'd argue doing this deliberately is a Red Card offense similar to strategic G12, but it could stay the G24 tech foul if 'willfully' was added.) Or just make the G24 wording like G26, "ROBOT may not intentionally...exceed 20 in. beyond its FRAME PERIMETER." What secondary problems would either of these changes create?

Is there anything to do about G28? The addition of "initiating" is good. Should it remain deliberate or damaging? What, specifically, are the issues with this currently for both robots?
