G25 A ROBOT may not attempt to stop or impede the flow of the MATCH in any of the following ways:
E. isolating BOULDERS in the opponent’s SECRET PASSAGE from opponents while not contacting the carpet in the opponent’s SECRET PASSAGE
I think the point of G25-E is that it's illegal to block robots from entering their secret passage from the neutral zone to retrieve boulders. It's only legal to isolate the boulders from your opponent if you enter their secret passage (which can only be done from the courtyard), and then your opponent can force you out at the risk of penalty if you don't get out of the way quick enough. If our alliance played against a team that parked their robot in front of our secret passage we would certainly have brought this to the question box if it wasn't called to get clarification. If this doesn't violate G25-E then I don't know what would?
