If I was to grab a 4'x4' sheet of black fabric and create a frame for it such that it widened my blocking wall for boulders, I could make the argument that its purpose is to increase blocking surface area, but the opposing alliance could claim that your ulterior motive is to mess with their camera.

From the Q&A
A. A device which is not specifically intended to interfere with the remote sensing capabilities of another ROBOT, but merely happens to be in the way of that ROBOT sensing a desired object, while intended for other functions(such as blocking shots), would not be a violation of R9-C.
If your camera is mounted low then you knew the possibility existed for someone to drive in front of you. Its probably better if we don't make this another intent rule, where an official has to try to figure out what your team is thinking.
