As per the rules, the idea behind all this is in 3.1.2

3.1.2.1 AUTO
During AUTO, points are awarded for ROBOT SETS, TOTE SETS, CONTAINER SETS, and STACKED TOTE SETS. (Noting of course that this doesn't mention grey totes.)

3.1.2.3 TELEOP
During TELEOP, points are awarded for scored TOTES, RECYCLING CONTAINERS, and LITTER.

Even more specifically, the TELEOP subsection TOTES states that a grey tote is "scored if it is fully supported by a SCORING PLATFORM and no portion of the TOTE extends above the top of the BACKSTOP." Nothing indicating that totes have to be stacked during tele-op, just that they have to be in scoring position at the end of the match.

And again in 3.1.2.4 Point Values, we find that "TELEOP scores, with the exception of Coopertition, are assessed based on the state of the FIELD when the ARENA timer displays zero (0), or, if not all elements have come to rest, five (5) seconds after the ARENA timer displays zero (0)."
