All the rules (contact with other bots, using it to avoid defenses, etc.) are consistent with that interpretation.

A robot is allowed in the opposing alliance's secret passage - There is no rule that prevents this. But, by statement of rule
G21, A ROBOT contacting carpet in the opponent’s SECRET PASSAGE may not contact opposing ROBOTS.
This means that your own alliance gets priority in your alliance's secret passage. if a robot is touching your secret passage's carpet, and you touch them, they are fouled, because this contact breaks rule G21.
The best way to think about your space in an opposing alliance's secret passage is as a privilege, not a right - you'll be fouled for overstepping your bounds.
