Frankly, you are part of the problem.
Just like the elevator hooks leaning on top can't support it?

FIRST has almost always had "contact implies supporting" rules. Because otherwise it's a judgement call and those are worse than illogical calls (like 1/32 cable supporting 60lbs of game pieces) because they are inconsistent.

What Eric is saying is don't even give them a reason to not count it because there's a chance it won't get counted just so they are consistent.
