Re: Rule on Perimeter Extension
The reason for the disable after repeated fouls is that, in theory, a team could just take the foul points as part of a strategy. The referee disable is there so that teams cannot take advantage of this.
Remember that if you disable your own robot, (self disable) fouls can still be called against it. Disabling does not stop fouls from being called.
In the case of a foul from a perimeter extension, you would initially be called for a penalty for an illegal extension even if you had disabled your own robot. and THEN you would be "disabled" by the referee which would stop further fouls for this rule (perimeter extension).
Self disabling would not necessarily rule out the first foul from being called.
