The point that each defense can only be weakened twice is pretty clear by a combination of 3.1.3 and Table 3-1.

Quote:
Each DEFENSE starts the MATCH with two (2) STRENGTH (a measure of progress towards the
completion of an objective). Each time a DEFENSE is CROSSED by a ROBOT, its STRENGTH is
decreased by one (1). When a DEFENSE’S STRENGTH reaches zero (0), the DEFENSE is DAMAGED.
Our general understanding is that auto crossings will also de-strengthen defenses. With this in mind the ideal first three crossings will be in Auto and will count for 10 points each. So best total defense score is 65.
