Missed G7 Violation?

In our final qualification match one of our opponent robots started as a spy bot... on their OWN half of the field.

This seems to be a clear G7-e violation, "When placed on the FIELD for a MATCH, each ROBOT must be... fully contained by the opposite half of the FIELD from their TOWER." If it was, the robot should have been disabled all match, right?

In the end, we won, and the robot didn't seem to be posing too big of a threat. But I hope this mistake (if it is one) doesn't happen elsewhere.

Los Angeles Regional, qualification match 87. I forgot to ask my drive team/coach what the refs said about this, if they said anything at all.
