The Embrasure is one of those holes (actually two, because there are two Embrasures and one Brattice). What he's saying is that there's no rule prohibiting a particularly hard kick/bowl/Boulder Propulsion Method from going through/over the opponents' Outer Works, specifically the Low Bar (which is NOT to be confused with the Low Goals)--which is true. I think Physics is more of a Law than a Rule.
