I agree with tkwetzel 100%. The answer lies in what it means to be
seated properly. The rules say that a tetra is stacked when all four apexes are within 6" of the supporting structure.
Obviously, a stack starts with the goal. So, start there and for each tetra ask whether each apex is within 6" of its predecessor.
1 BLUE - Yes
2 RED - Yes
3 RED - Yes
4 BLUE- Yes
5 BLUE- No (The chain is broken)
6 RED- Moot
Any attempt to justify 5 or 6 because they are each 6" from "something" would involve
circular reasoning. To say that 5 counts because it is within 6" of 6 pre-supposes that 6 counts. That's begging the question.
