Re: [YMTC]: Breaking robots
The 'catalyst' clause was added as a team update, precisely because teams playing offense were penalized when defenders rammed in to their intake.

Blue are actively engaging their mechanism by picking up the ball, that's why they are not considered the catalyst for the contact inside the frame perimeter.

Red are driving towards the ball or robot to make contact with ball/robot (ie play defense), so they are considered the catalyst.
