If my robot is shaped like a giant wedge, and I am minding my own business picking up balls... and your robot decides to attack me for defensive reasons... you are going to have a hard time pushing me around. You are at risk of flipping yourself.
It's not the wedge itself that is ungracious... sometimes they are just used ungraciously. *Shrug* When I reffed last year, I would warn teams that I felt were playing "rougher" than they should. In most cases, this put a stop to it.
