I'll try to submit a Q&A once I get the team password. I suspect this is a simple oversight and teams will be allowed to cross their own defenses with impunity, although it would be interesting if they decide not to permit it.

To me, as a planned ref at a district event, it's pretty clear cut that the robot only met the requirements of CROSSING one time.
