What I am saying is that our team was never pinned but other teams were illegally pinned. When two robots of equal power based upon previous matches go against each other and one has a slight advantage of position and keeps the other pinned (both robots touching each other) for more than 15 seconds, that is definitely illegal move. it doesn't matter if your team has the best drivers, if they are pinned illegally, it is not fair. and by saying,"tough live with a rule that can be used unfairly" shows that probably your team did exactly what was described above.
