Re: G39 "Launching" interpretation

No I read it that way from the first read. The other game mechanics make clear that apart from bowling into the SP by the HP, boulders must be individually ported by a robot, with the single exception of launching them into the tower (presumably the high goals). Physics may call the boulders sponge rubber, but the game rules take them for granite.

The answer clearly states that this is their intent.
