Cross field kicking of boulders

G39 says that Robots must be in the opponent's courtyard to "launch" boulders.

G40 says a Robot cannot "cause" a boulder to move from the Neutral Zone into the opponent's courtyard unless it is carrying the boulder.

To me, "launch" means other than rolling on the ground.

Does anything prevent a robot from being in the opponent's Secret Passage area (not in the Neutral Zone), and kicking (punching) a boulder hard enough that it rolls under the Low Bar?

How fast does the boulder have to be rolling to breach the Cordura flap?
