There are incidences and specific scenarios where you could leave or almost leave the goalie zone in an attempt to thwart autonomous and it count as an actual net benefit provided you do not get a red card.

However, as always, it's a pleasure.
His point is it would have been idiotic for 973 to intentionally leave the zone in order to prevent ~4x less points than they would have given the other alliance by doing so.
