<G18> ... If an alliance ROBOT removes any STACKED TETRA of the opposing alliance, the TETRA will be SCORED (3 points) and the opposing alliance automatically OWNS the GOAL for the remainder of the match regardless of what color TETRAS are on the goal. ...
Therefore, REMOVE is the key word here.

AND if Bluabot just tilted the red tetra with 3 seconds such that the tetra is not scored (not properly seated) and is still supported by the goal and lower tetras, it would probably count because Bluabot DESCORED the tetra. (I may be very wrong about this)

Since DESCORED is not in the rules, then you must rely on REMOVE from <G18> to explain why you give Redalliance credit.

NOW, WHAT IF when Bluabot hit Redabot, the top tetra fell to the ground; wouldn't you say that Bluabot's actions REMOVED the tetra, thereby making it necessary to give Redalliance credit.

SIMILARLY, since in the original YMTC, it was Bluabot's actions that DESCORED the red tetra, would you not consider this REMOVING the tetra thus resulting in the red tetra counting as a score.

I say the red tetra counts ... just because Dave said it didn't and he is probably fast asleep by now ... I hope
