Team Update #20/Scoring Examples

There once was a Team Update 20.
It had scoring examples a plenty.
It showed how to win,
With stacks made of bins,
That, as Starbucks might say, are quite ‘Venti’!


Team Update #20 is out, and contains the post-build fabrication fules, some updates on GM31, and a number of scoring examples.

My question is about examples 3 through 7: Didn't team update #3 say that "Any container you touch that is touching any container, etc., will be worth zero points"? In these examples, they say that boxes touching a touched box are not in direct contact, and therefore do count.

Was this an oversight on FIRST's part, or was it an unannounced change in the scoring rules?
