I agree with you entirely. However, if they would have eliminated the extra wording regarding the "top of the barriers" it would have been stone solid.

Yeah, I understand what you mean. The extra information tends to make it misleading. Mainly the extra examples are to clarify that "functional mechanisms", and not just "immobility mechanisms", also apply toward this rule.

Otherwise FIRST would get 300 e-mails from teams asking if it is okay to push against/touch the bar so their robot can flip over it. This would be morely a functional mechanism.
