Also, if it is an alliance member and they push the robot onto the ramp and get extra points, I think it is fine. I saw both of these happen...

I also saw a bot push a fallen opposing robot gently aside so that the ramp was clear for the ramp dash at the end. No smashing, though, just a gentle nudge in front of the low goal. It also blocked the low goal completely, which might have been the second part of a brilliant move.
