Yeah, it seems like you get DQ - 30pts if you interfere in the HP load side, but if you interfere on the auto load side, it's just a 30pt deduction.
I wonder how they will judge that, since it states a DQ for impeding the "trade-off between HP and robot"... so does that mean you might only get 30pt deduction if the HP didn't get there yet (not yet handing off tetra), or a DQ-30 no matter what, if you interfere at any time on the HP side?
I'd almost rather see the same penalty for both sides, for interference any time in load zone, being DQ - 30pts.... just for consistency sake. But at least it seems like the number and variance of penalties has been reduced this year.
