You seem to be specifically sighting the case where your specific team was given a red card, I won't comment on that. A tip is a tip. A tip with no call is virtually a lost match. It doesn't matter how you got tipped. Defender? Scorer? Breacher? You are still equally screwed when the time comes to capture and you are instantly down 30 points. You are blindsighted to the other side of the argument completely.

Not at all, I can fully understand how a tipped robot would feel to lose by being tipped. My point is that the rules need refining. There are better ways to resolve the issue of a tipped robot than just issuing a red card.
The reality beyond the red card is that mentors now have to deal with the fallout - from upset students, to mentors simply walking away from the program, to sponsors wondering what happened.
It isn't about the win or loss it is about the fairness of the issue.

But if a
tip is a tip how is every tip NOT the same. I don't understand. You can't have it both ways. Either every tip results in a red card, or there are subtleties that need to be clarified for referees when calling red cards.
