Exactly.

If a robot, under thier own power, drives onto you...and flips, it is thier fault.

If you ram other teams, get underneath them, and flip them - you just built a Battlebot - which is illegal.

Think about it: you are designed to intentionally disable other robots, which is a direct violation of the rules.
